Don't base your opinion on just 1 person. Everywhere on the net you will find the same 2 comments.
1- Picture quality is awsome... but...
2- It's very expensive. For just a little more you can get a 18-200mm

Now, to answer your question radityopradipto,
I would go with exaclty what OsmosisStudios was saying: 16-85mm + 70-300. They are in the same build category with both VRII, a metal connector, and a rubber backseal.

Check my signature, this is exactly what I'm using and I would buy the same thing if I had to do it again.

Next lens on my list is actually the 10-24mm DX hehehe
