I am looking to get a zoom lens for my Nikon D40. I was looking at these
1)[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Nikon Zoom Normal-Telephoto 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED AF-S VR DX Zoom-Nikkor Autofocus Lens[/FONT]
Cost: $230 and will autofocus with my D40
- Does anyone have experience with this lens? Should I go for it?
2) 60-300 F4-5.6 TOKINA SZ-X MACRO AIS
In this condition:
[FONT=Helvetica,Verdana,Arial][SIZE=-1]"Excellent Plus: 90-96% of the original condition. Shows moderate wear. May have slight marks on finish. Glass very clean."[/SIZE][/FONT]
Cost: $76 used; will have to manual focus, but allows for more zoom. And based on this chart
I guess my question is, is it worth giving the 60-300 a shot? (because it will get me closer/leave more money for a macro lens) Has anyone bought from Keh? Or does anyone have anyother suggestions for a zoom lens.
Thanks for the help.
