I have a Nikon D60, the purchase of new lens, which is better, Nikkor 54-200mm VR with VR, or a Sigma 70-300mm without him?
I want to upgrade. They have the same price and all other statistics are the same. The only differences are the reduction of vibrations in the Nikkor and 70-300mm on the Sigma, but not VR. Wherever I looked at the Sigma received high marks.
Who Sigma gave a good rating … that is the question. Everyone I know sticks with lenses that are made by the camera manufacturer unless there is a specialty lens made by a generic brand that OEMs do not do. The Nikon 55-200 mm is excellent and complements system ideal for Nikon 18-55 mm lens you have. If you really need a 70-300 mm VR by Nikon .. is an excellent goal. http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/70-300-vr.htm Read further down this article and you read more on Sigma and Tamron, two of the most hyped http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/18200.htm generic lens
