I want to buy a NikonD5100, should I also get a 55-200mm lens?

I'm an amateur photographer and I'm looking in to buying a Nikon D5100.It seems like the perfect camera for me but I was wondering if I should also purchase the 55-200mm lens? It comes with a 18-55mm VR lens.
What would the 55-200mm lens do for me?
Should I pay more to get it in addition?

Actually if you shoot sports, action or some wildlife, the 55-200 mm is a good choice, but if you are just learning how to use the camera, the 18-55 mm will keep you busy for a long time, shooting landscapes, group shots, full body shots and head and shoulder shots.

My most used lenses when traveling are the 12-24 mm wide angle and 24-85 mm. I use my 70-300 mm rarely as a travel lens.

If you are getting a "deal" by buying both lenses then it makes sense just to get the camera and both lenses. You will eventually grow into the camera an lenses, so in the end, this choice is up to you

If the 55-200mm lens has VR, it can be considered. If not, forget it. That lens' aperture is too small, meaning if you aren't in broad daylight, you can easily get blurred images due to camera shake. VR corrects that by a bit. Even then, the 55-200mm VR isn't a very fancy lens, but it will get you started if you absolutely need a telephoto.

If I were you, I would stick with the 18-55mm VR first, just like I did (used the 18-55 for two years before getting a second lens). After a while you will be able to really see if you need that lens, or even if you need better.

And remember, the best zoom is your feet. No zoom or tele will give you better image as moving in on your subject. Of course, sometimes it isn't possible, and that is when you really need a tele.

If you absolutely want a second lens, consider a 50mm f/1.8G also, for around the same price as the 55-200mm VR. Even though your kit lens covers the 50mm focal range, it doesn't have the fast aperture, which will give you beautiful bokeh (background blur) and good low-light performance. Also, prime lenses (fixed focal) are always sharper than zoom lenses.
