Looking to get my first zoom for my Nikon D60.
Looking to spend around £100-£150, I know whatever I get wont be amazing at that price point, but the best of a bunch is still the best!
Looking for around the 200mm top end, I currently have the 18-55mm kit lens so starting around the 55mm or 70mm is fine.
Nikkor/Nikon,
Tamron,
Sigma,
I dont mind.
Im not adverse to buying second hand but has to be close to collect (From Swansea, South Wales) of which I see nothing in the for sale section. I did have a quick check on camarthen camera center's site but nothing really that I could see...
The main thing is it has to allow for auto-focus when im feeling lazy. I think being stuck in manual only will be more annoying than not having the reach I want currently..
I keep getting confused by the different companies calling their focussing systems different things. I think HSM is sigma's? AF-S is Nikons?
Either way I have officially become too confused by all these seemingly random letters and its late so Ive now given up and decided I need to seek help
Looking forward to peoples inputs.
