This is an awesome pedometer. It is accurate, easy to use, resets itself to zero at midnight and most importantly, placement is NOT limited to your waist. Because it doesn’t use the more common pendulum type movement, this reads or senses movement in a variety of positions. It will accurately read steps when placed on your ankle, in your pocket, purse, briefcase etc. My old pedometer “thought” the bumps on the road when driving my car were steps, this doesn’t “think” that. It also calculates calories burned and aerobic steps. I guess that’s the equivalent of “running” steps on other pedometers. I does give me a break down of how many steps I’ve taken and ran throughout the day. Oh, it is also extremely silent. There is absolutely no clicking sound as with other pendulum type pedos. So, no one knows you’re wearing one nor asks “what’s making that sound?” Love it!

Proud owner. As new in the photography business, (not ever having a camera of such capacity to do new skills).
I am having a ball with the zoom lens and know I will learn more as I go along.
I love my new world of photography.

Nikon 55-200 VR: Nice lens; Excellent value for money …. Just received it, so I have a very preliminary view based on about 60 shots at speeds ranging from 1/30 to 1/4, zoom at 55mm and 200mm and at f/5.6. I like the lens. With my D50, the pictures have very good sharpness and contrast … The VR really works and I was able to get usable pictures at 1/4 hand held. Focusing speed is good, although not lightning fast. The close focus distance was 3-4 feet … which is high. But overall, you will not be disappointed as long as you keep in mind the fact that this is a $235 lens and not a $600 lens.
I think of myself as an advanced amateur on a tight budget, and had considered spending $850 on the 18-200VR. Then this lens came along – with VR – and I thought, let me spend the $235 and can get the 18-200 in 2 years when Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR is selling for $600.
