oh yeah you can defiantly get the same results with editing. I like the polarizer because you see the results right though the view finder as well as for using in direct sun light. Some times in direct light you can not edit the lighting very well if there is alot of glare.

I have a macro lens as my extra lens. I only use it occasionally. I think the Nikon's tend to be made for bigger hands than mine.

I can't always go to my community plot in low light, though I do love to photograph in the rain or a very cloudy day.

I tend to get better lighting shots of my home garden. Its right there outside of my window.

I am working on getting better at PhotoShop, which I think should be able to do anything a filter can, plus some. Do you think a filter is better?

I use a Nikon D40 with a similar lens to yours as well as a 70-300mm but that is more for wildlife then veggies.

I have also ran into problems in full sun so I try to take photo's mainly in the evening when the sun is low. I have also had good luck with polarizer filters, if you are not familiar with them they just screw on the end of your lens, you turn them until the glare is cut and take your shot. Kind of like the sunglasses you can see into water with. I found mine on ebay in order to get the filter for a great price.

My camera is a Canon EOS digital Rebel WTi with a Canon EFS 17-85 mm lens. A great camera that I take everywhere with me (except near water).

I also photoshop my photos to correct for shadows/highlights as its hard to get a good shot in the bright sunlight.

I remember cutting a ladies lawn when I was younger and she had grape vines. They were always full of hornets that freaked me out.
