I want to spend a few hundred bucks on a "normal" lens for the D500 so I can try more subjects that aren't small and far away. Been looking at the 17-55mm 2.8 and 16-80mm 2.8-4 VR DX zooms, is it dumb to spend that much on crop format lenses? The only half-decent lenses I have so far are the 35mm f/1.8 DX and a Tamron 150-600 G2. FBS fucked around with this message at 03:32 on Aug 18, 2023 |

I'm definitely buying used, all my gear has been used and I've been really impressed with the condition of everything from KEH/MPB so far.Mega Comrade posted:If you want a completely bonkers suggestion, look at the sigma 18-35 art. Its huge and very very heavy but it's bonkers sharp, sharpest lens you can get for aps-c, it's effectively 3 prime's in one lens and somehow sharper than most primes. Just know you're getting a workout every time you leave the house with it. This is intriguing and it's right in the price range I'm looking at. Most of the reviews I checked mentioned inconsistent auto focus issues though, which would be a bummer.

Wibla posted:The G2 version of that lens works, at least according to Thom Hogan. Can confirm the 150-600 G2 works fine on an FTZ.

I wouldn't blame Nikon for bailing on crop format but man I wish they'd made a Z70 with IBIS before they did.

The 17-55 2.8 DX is an amazing lens for the price these days.
