Nancy Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I'm betting good money that went promptly on a steak? Got my camera last night at 1 am when I got home after driving for 12 hours solid.

Kegger Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Okay so I spent some more money yesterday, and picked up a Tamron 17-50 2.8. Sharp as a tack, it's crazy. Will post picks later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kegger Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Thinking about picking up a 70-200 2.8. One side is saying save up and get the Nikkor with VR... But the other side is saying this for much cheaper, but still great quality.... HELP ME!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kegger Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I have the Tamron 17-50 2.8 so I don't need the 17-55. Your the sexy one Nance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I'm considering the Sigma 18-50 f2.8 (I like the close focus over the Tamron) which is just as sharp as the Tamron. No need for the 17-55 when the Sigma and Tamron come extremely close to it's sharpness and contrast/colors. If I was you, I'd go with that Sigma 70-200 f2.8 over the Nikon variant. Half the cost and probably 90% as good as the Nikon. Look at the reviews at B&H.....almost perfect score accross the board from 30+ reviews.....hard to argue with that. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller...orToReadReviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sup Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I'd save up for the VR. Not having VR (IS, whatever) in that range really sucks when you start running out of light. I'm kicking myself for getting a 70-200 without IS, now I'm saving up for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kicking myself for getting a 70-200 without IS, now I'm saving up for one. Yeah, except VR is going to do nothing about stopping motion on a lens that is primarly targeted toward sports shooting. Only the shutter speed is going to help with that. If you are planning to shoot sports or moving objects with the lens, I fail to see the need for VR. If you plan to do some portraits with the lens (which it would also be great for) and expect to do some of that in lower light or indoors.....I'd agree about getting the VR.

Kegger Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I'll be doing both sports and portraiture. But I'm also saving up for an alien Bee's setup. So for my portraiture, I'll have all the light I need. But I think I am still gonna save up for the Nikkor, unless the bug bites me really hard, lol.

Nancy Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 im trying to convince a guy to trade me his 28-70 f2/8 for my 10.5mm plus $500 on my part. i hope he goes for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegger Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 28-70 2.8? Or the 24-70 2.8. Cuz I'd personally go for the 24-70. And I love ebay, I just bought 2 Sandisk Extreme III 8GB CF cards for 80 bucks. My mom bought me one while I was home and she laid down 120.

Gary, should I do it? Hrm, that's an excellent price. If you can justify not having VR and weathersealing, I'd go for it. I guess if you want to upgrade later you can always sell it for a minimal loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
