Nikon D750 & D780

Would I be safer getting the tamron 70-300 VC or Nikon 70-300 over this sigma for speed?
 
Here we go again lol.
Yup, lol.
Rookies, why don't you do actual research rather than going on people's comments etc, not saying people are wrong but you went the Sony A7II direction then back again to Nikon D750 in a zippy.

Pack up your camera, head to the guys house who you were collecting from. Try out lens AF speed, if it plays nice, pay the guy some money and leave. If it doesn't apologise for wasting his time, don't give him any money and leave. Then if you're still without lens, pop to Jessops and pick up aforementioned Tamron 70-300.

Pick up camera and take photos (and share if you wish)

That is exactly what you should do @rookies . Try and if you find issues, don't buy.

The other thing you can do is go to Jessops or Calumet and try te following lenses on your own D750 - Nikon 70-300, Tamron 70-300, Tamron 70-200 2.8 and Nikon 70-200 2.8.
If you like one and still not sure, go for a weekend rental and pay between £20-60 for the lens you want and then test it all weekend. Calumet has a nice policy, if you rent a lens and then buy the same new, they deduct either the whole or part of the rental. There is nothing to loose.
 
Well I am not doing a 3 hours total journey and come home without. after having a read on the internet at a few places it can hunt pretty bad so I am doing for what I oringal wanted from the start...

I have used the Nikon 70-300vr on D750 with no issues - used for some equestrian shots.
 
rookies, Wakefield is only 40 mins from the Hope Valley, i drive to and from the cement works all the time
It ok decided go full whack and the. I've got good lens the. Get a d820 when out
 
Gary you sounds very local. Where you from ??
 
what?
 
It reads to me that he's going for the 70-200 f2.8, so he then has a good lens, and will get the D820 when it comes out...

That's the great thing about Rookie's posts.
Fill in the blanks and construct your own sentences ! :D

He probably does it deliberately, that way he can plead his innocence and say he never really wrote that...we just read it wrong lol.
I give up anyway!.
 
For of you who don't know me. I am hard of hearing and have a slight learning difficulties as you may of gather lol but sorry guys

Certainly no need to apologise at all @rookies,
Mostly harmless banter in here, which is one of the reasons I like this thread.
Oh, and the fact that the D750 is such a good camera.
Especially when you put a lens on it and take pictures !! :woot:

Well, that's no excuse really.... if you want to take photos, go and take photos, not waste time wondering what your photos could look like if you had this or that lens...
For what it's worth, I have vision problems, and I don't waste any time taking photos...
 
I need a drink.... :D

Not the one below. By the way this is taken with D750 and 70-200 2.8
