    D7000, which quality walk around lens?

    Yes, I did. I know that I missed only once the 17-24 range, but i would have missed the 50-120 a whole lot more, maybe half of my photos.

    D7000, which quality walk around lens?

    At the end, I did buy the D7000 and the 24-120 f4. I went to Spain for a few days and had plenty of occasions to test it. The combo is exactly what I wanted/expected as a walk around solution upgrade from my D80. There were a couple of occasions were I missed the 18-24 range (DX version), but I...

I really like good glass, strive to get the best I can afford, but...

    D7000, which quality walk around lens?

    Yes, 24 is wide enough, and 85 not long enough. I hear that the 18-70 is one if the best kit lenses all the time, so I do wonder how unsatisfied the other kit lenses would leave me.

    D7000, which quality walk around lens?

    So, I have decided to get the D7000 after a few years with the D80. But I need to get a zoom lens that will allow me to take photos on travel. I rented and loved the Nikon 24-70 2.8, but it is expensive, big and heavy for my traveling, besides does not have a great telephoto reach that...

    Critique from Inexperienced Togs!!

    This is an interesting thread, but I think many different elements have been mixed up. a) The validity of criticism from someone with very little or non extensive experience. b) The validity of TECHNICAL criticism from someone that has no technical expertise themselves. c) The validity of non...
