Your favourite lens??

For me its got to be the Nikon 24-120mm VR 3.5-5.6 G.

It can do very well on close ups yet has the capability for scenic shots as well. Its a good all round take with you lens.

Re: Your favourite lens??

One of my fav lenses has to be the AF-S 24-70 mm F2.8G ED Nikkor - im currently saving up for it (along with the 70-200mm) Its a beautiful lens which is pin sharp. That said, i still LOVE my 50mm

Re: Your favourite lens??

Well I only have two choose from, and I am surprised but the one I seem to use the most is my 14-42mm, so I guess it must be that one

I do want to get another one, but I find it all very confusing

Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VR. Since I got it its been off the cam twice, and that was to put the tele-converter on. Its pin sharp, fast AF and the f/2.8 just gives such speed in low light and great bokkeh for shots. It's worth every penny I paid for it.

Re: Your favourite lens??

You know what, I really really like my Nikon kit lens (18-55) - it was excellent on my D40 and somehow, even better on my D300! I also like my 55-200, but do feel my D300 is better suited to faster lens.

I'd love to have Stanokellas 70-200 f2.8!

Next on my list is probably the nifty fifty
Kit 1
Nikon D300
Nikon 55-200mm VR
Kit 2

Re: Your favourite lens??

I think for me it is my Tamron 90mm f/2,8 lens. I definately enjoy photographing with it. Much more with my 80-200 mm, which would be my second choise in popularity, though.
