Should I get 50mm f/1.8G AF-S or Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR?
Should I get for my nikon d3000 O. I can not decide. Please after some of their sample pictures with these lenses, or just send the link. I like doing portraits and landscapes. Can you buy refurbished lenses?
to portraits, the 50 mm f/1.8 is one of the best brands of landscapes, however, you need something like the Nikkor AF-S 10-24mm
