Nikkor 16-85 Vr and Nikon D7000?

Hi, i would like to know if there's any one out there that currently owns a Nikon D7000 & the 16-85Vr
i have the D7000 with kit lense 18-105 vr and i would like to get a better lense. I heard that the 16-85 is very sharp compare to the 18-200vr but there are some reviews online saying that the 16-85vr some Af issues and softness when used in the D7000.

I would just stick with the 18-105mm lens. The 16-85mm is no sharper than the 18-105mm lens, and it doesn't really offer anything different other than the 16mm wide end.

If I were you, I'd save the money towards a wide-angle zoom lens such as the Nikkor 10-24mm or something less expensive like the Tokina 11-16mm.
