Doesn't seem a blur due to shake, but more like a problem in focusing and depth of field, a bit like the 18-55, which is really a bitch in some situations, with no part of the pic really sharp :bah:

Guilty myself... although i've learned a few tricks with the 18-55 to improve sharpness, and focusing point... it still gets soft around the edges. my 100-300 is mostly useless at 230mm and up; unless the object is very close... and at that point, its definately not an automobile... but it makes quite sharp images from 100-180mm; and excentuates it if the aperature is max-open (4.5-5). (quantaray)
anytime you have such an extreme zoom; like from 18-200... you are going to have problems with the pictures at a range of focal lenghts... this is even true of the L series 35-300mm; where you pay for improved quality... but still similar effects.
