What is the equivalent of Nikkor lenses for Canon L-professional/1st goals of the series of degrees?
if Canon has its professional/1st grade lenses the category of the L series, How can you distinguish professional/1st grade Nikon lenses?
Nikon ED lenses with a gold ring. These are your higher career goals, as the VR 70-200 ED f/2.8, or their 17-55 ED DX f/2.8. Quality that are quite expensive and also very high.
