Hmmm. All I can say is this - I have the 15-200mm and it's pretty shite. Wouldn't bother to be honest.
The thing to remember with lenses is that they are the ultimate example of 'You get what you pay for'. If a lens is cheap and looks like a bargain, it's probably going to be shit. The most expensive lens I have (unfortunately) is my 18-22 wide angle, which set me back £670. Image quality wise it shits all over my 18-200 which I paid about £400 for (can't remember now), but then Jaffa's 70-200mm which he paid £1200 for absolutely fucking shits all over my wide angle, etc etc.
tl;dr - don't buy it, I'd wager it's a wank lens.
