Is the nikon af s dx 18 200mm f 3 5 5 6g ed vr ii good for landscape?

It's a sound all-round landscape lens, with one real limit. The landscape guide calls a wide zoom the classic choice, around 10-24mm on APS-C, for big skies and strong foregrounds. This lens starts at 18mm, which is about 27mm full-frame equivalent, so it won't go as wide as you may want for grand vistas.

Where it works well is reach and convenience. Landscape shooting usually means f/8 to f/11, so the f/3.5-5.6 aperture won't hold you back, and the stabilisation helps when you're not on a tripod. The 200mm end is good for picking out distant ridges and details, which the guide rates highly.

If you want wide skies as well, pair it with a wider lens. The lens page is here.
