View Full Version : Nikon Users: What Lenses Do you carry???
Lyndon_L_Ong 05-25-2006, 06:12 PM As for me
I have a Nikkor 50mm f1.8, Sigma 24mm f1.8, and a Nikkor 24-120mm VR (w/c my bro-n-law and I take turns in using it.)
So fire away....:)
mikeli 05-25-2006, 09:21 PM for me I have the following lens:
AF-S Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8 ED, Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 ED, AF-S Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 ED DX, Nikkor 12-24mm ED DX and Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 macro
But I am planning to acquire 18-200mm DX VR for general purpose....
Ronald_Tablante 05-25-2006, 09:28 PM I have the Nikkor 18-70, Nikkor 18-55, Nikkor 70-300G, Nikkor 50mm1.8, Tokina 12-24
Ernest Sim 05-30-2006, 06:44 PM for me, I have the Nikkor 18-70mm, Nikkor 70-300mm ED, Tokina 12-24, and Nikkor 60mm F2.8D micro. I wish to have the 18-200mm VR too for my travel but way to much for my budget right now. :(

Hi Carlo. I find those really essential for indoors when you can't use a flash. These shots wouldn't be possible without them(at least for me). I also tried using the 70-200mm VR but the photos turned out not that good. :(

Vince_Villamin 08-28-2006, 03:17 PM hi zandy, are those pics shot wide open at F/1.4? They look really good. How much did you get the 28 1.4?
For me:
Tokina 12-24 f/4
Nikkor 17-55 f/2.8
Nikkor 18-70 f/3.5-4.5
Sigma 28-70 f/2.8
Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8

Earl Gonzalez 08-28-2006, 03:24 PM hi zandy, are those pics shot wide open at F/1.4?
mmmmm... Guessing here :) First one at f/1.4. The second one abit stopped down say f/4 or 5.6 maybe, with flash...
zandy_marantal 08-28-2006, 03:32 PM hi zandy, are those pics shot wide open at F/1.4? They look really good. How much did you get the 28 1.4?
For me:
Tokina 12-24 f/4
Nikkor 17-55 f/2.8
Nikkor 18-70 f/3.5-4.5
Sigma 28-70 f/2.8
Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8
Nikkor 50 f/1.8
Thanks Vince,
Yes, they were shot wide-open and hand-held.
I got the 28 1.4 for $1600 used. But that was earlier this year. Since the lens has been discontinued, it has gone up to about $2k now. :-(
Another option is to go with the Sigma 30mm 1.4, I think it costs around $450.
Earl Gonzalez 08-28-2006, 03:39 PM Thanks Vince,
Yes, they were shot wide-open and hand-held.
Talaga zandy? :) Even the second one at f/1.4; no flash?
zandy_marantal 08-28-2006, 03:53 PM mmmmm... Guessing here :) First one at f/1.4. The second one abit stopped down say f/4 or 5.6 maybe, with flash...
Sorry, made a mistake. both were shot at f1.4 but with the 85mm(ISO 400 - no flash).
Here is one from the 28mm but shot at f2 (again, ISO 400 - no flash)
That church was actually darker than what appears in the picture.
http://zandy.smugmug.com/photos/84758701-L.jpg
I'll try to find pics using the 28mm 1.4 shot wide open and post it later.
zandy_marantal 08-28-2006, 03:55 PM Talaga zandy? :) Even the second one at f/1.4; no flash?
Yep Earl, talagang talaga :Grin:
You can download the pic and view the EXIF info.

:) Okidokee... Thanks for clarifying zandy.
Aris Guerrero 08-28-2006, 04:17 PM another option would be the 35mm f/2 - cheap! although one stop slower than the 28mm f/1.4 :)
Carlo R. Lopez 08-28-2006, 06:41 PM I got the 28 1.4 for $1600 used. But that was earlier this year. Since the lens has been discontinued, it has gone up to about $2k now. :-(
Another option is to go with the Sigma 30mm 1.4, I think it costs around $450.
thats no chunk change! thats impressive
zandy_marantal 08-28-2006, 07:24 PM another option would be the 35mm f/2 - cheap! although one stop slower than the 28mm f/1.4 :)
And if you use a D50, you gain 2 stops since it is very usable at ISO1600

caloy_samson 11-21-2006, 12:40 PM @ Vince
to tell you frankly, I haven't really used it yet...newly arrived (last Saturday). Of course I have mounted it on my cam for the usual testing (kuno), I think the pix are a tad sharper (both at 20m and handheld) than the ones taken with the kit lens. Maybe it is because of the VR, but I think if I use a tripod with the kit lens mounted the difference would be very neglible or none at all.
The feeling of owning one is nice, though:). I'll pm you once I get around to really using it.

The Nikkor MF 55mm f1.2 is that available here in Manila? Hidalgo? I think you're the 3rd person in DPP who has this lens, and I'm quite intrigued by it (not to mention the amazing review on it). :)

LOL! :) I thought about a 300mm f/2.8 VR last December but decided that it wouldn't give me much gain over my 200 VR + 1.4x TC. Besides, can you imagine lugging a 300mm, 400mm, or 200-400 VR around? The 200VR maybe big and heavy, but it's nothing compared to its bigger brethren. :) You need a hand-truck to carry those around. :Grin:

that's the reason why i chose it instead of the 80-200mm.. i can shoot with it the whole day without my arms hurting.
of course the angle-of-view is very tight on a dx.. not very good on tight places but great out there on the streets..

i know what you mean... i've spent lots of time shooting with my primes these past couple of months. the longest f/2.8 prime i have right now is the 105VR micro and being a micro lens it doesn't always open at f/2.8 :( i already have an 85 1.8 so i want a longer one next - most likely the 180. thanks! :)

KikoyBalayon 06-11-2008, 12:26 PM Do you use these on a D40 only? or do you have other bodies that has AF motor?
the 58mm is a MF lens.. yes, i used the 58mm and 180mm on the d40.. but i recently acquired a used d200 for cheap that i need for events shoot..

Sir, may I ask you use two prime lens on shooting events?
KikoyBalayon 06-11-2008, 12:46 PM Sir, may I ask you use two prime lens on shooting events?
of course not.. i use this lenses for portraits. its just recently that i got this opportunity to shoots events that is why i need to invest in midrange zooms(18-100mm range) for obvious reasons..
but then im always out in the streets where i want to go light.. that's where primes come in..

jfri.mariano 02-21-2009, 04:32 AM hi guys, i've been trying to backread the thread to get some tips on what you guys use the most as a walk around lens. i'll be purchasing a d40 once i get back and i'm thinking of getting a good walkaround lens for it. would the lens kit (18-55mm) be enough?
i've observe that most of you use the 18-200 as your walk-around lens, is this the best everyday lens to carry around. can anyone explain what are it's main functions (or am i in the wrong thread)? good thing it's af-s, so if ever, AF function will work on the d40.
thanks.

thanks.
It's main benefits are :
Wide range coverage from medium wide angle to medium telephoto
It's called a vacation lens because there's no need to carry other lenses when you need to pack light
It has VR

They said the 18-200 is the jack of all trades; master of none. Yes it's not a fast lens and has barrel distortion but I like calling it a vacation lens as well. Using it has benefits a photowalker would be interested greatly while traveling lightly.
Yes it will auto focus on the D40. Just beware that this glass will also teach you to be lazy. LOL! :Grin:

One sweet lens, though its heavy. Very useful specialy if you need the extra reach. Sharp @ f/2.8 no need to stop down for me. Get it, you wont regret it. :)

timdeguzman 04-16-2009, 01:40 PM Update: I carry my Sigma 18-50 and Tokina 12-24 all the time...usage is about 65% sigma and 35% tokina.:)
When I had a mid-zoom and tele-zoom before, I found out I rarely used the tele (probably just about 5%).
Going wide, I found it to be more usable, as I see myself constantly changing lenses more of the time. Though I'll still be getting another tele...just for those sniper shots.:Grin:

I agree, I plan to get the Tokina 11-16 zoom, after having learned that it is far sharper than the cheap-built Nikkor 10-24 DX and the sturdy but expensive Nikkor 12-24 DX. Since it is very sharp, you could just crop your images later to simulate up to 35mm at 6MP (assuming you have a 12MP sensor).
I am not much of a high ISO user so I will probably stick with DX for a long while (for the reach benefits), until maybe I have both the "Moolah and Guts" :Grin: to buy a 300mm f2.8.

i'll consider the tokina 11-16mm. i think it's easier to sell if i decided to go FF. :)

Actually you can use tokina 11-16mm on FX at 16mm without any vignetting. Which is the same FOV with 11mm on DX - 16mm on FX.
