2.8f Nikkor 24-70 G-ED AF nikon d7000?
I thought to buy solid D7000 DSLR. Well, I know the kit lens is the worst. so I have planned to buy 24-70 Nikkor lenses 2.8fy after months later, Nikkor 80-200mm too. 24-70 is much wider, but I do not want to compromise with the quality of the image. lenses should I buy used from ebay or craiglist or should I buy diff. Lens under $ 1000? please advise. Thank you. 1. What about 28-85mm f2.8 Tamaron instead of lenses Nikkor kit lens 24-70 or 2. Nikkor 28-70 f2.8 what used to advise plz
I have the 18-105 VR (lens) and now have been surprised by how well he does. But if you are looking for 2.8 glass offers superior optics and AF speed, I do not think he was disappointed! You may want to go to the gym because it is a very heavy lens. I recommend looking at the 17-55 2.8 is also. Depending on your style of shooting, that might work best for you with APS-C D7000. Personally, I am a Prime lenses kindof guy so I would recommend that you visit some of the main objectives as well. I use my D90 following cousins more than I can use any of my zooms: Tokina 35 mm 2.8, nikon 50mm 1.8, Sigma 85mm 1.4, Tamron 90mm macro.
