I realize there's a huge discrepancy in what these lenses are intended for, but I am having difficulty in choosing what to get next. Currently I have a Nikon 16-35 F4 VRII, Nikon 50mm 1.8G, 85mm 1.8G, and Tamron 70-200 2.8VC.
Here's my thoughts on what each lens would do for me...
150-600 | I currently have nothing like this lens. I plan to do a lot of kayaking and such this summer, and could do lots of birding with this lens...Opens up a whole new world of photography for me.
35 Art | Would be boss as a walk-around lens, and killer for "scene" shots of couples with shallow DOF. The fact that it's almost apochromatic makes me drool...
24 Art | Similar as above, but wider. Maybe not as useful as the 35, and the reviews say it's less apochromatic and a slow focuser--so not a huge contender.
What do YOU think? Seeing Jon Secord's and others work with the Tamzooka makes me think that's really what I want, but the 35 will be great for portrait work and that's what makes the money.
Currently I plan on renting the 35 to take with me to the Daffodil festival on Nantucket at the end of this month to see if it really makes a difference....
