[FONT="]Hello all, I am in need of some lens advice. I recently bought a D200, which I love, and I am planning to get back into wedding photography as well as some landscape. I currently have a Nikon 80mm 1.4, and 18-200 VR and I am looking for a nice zoom wide and a zoom telephoto. I dont have a lot of $$$, about $1,100-$1,200 for both. I considered getting the Nikon, but I have read many reviews on the Tokina, Sigma and Tamron stating that they have all perform very well. Plus, for the price of the Nikon 80-200 F/2.8, I could get 2 lenses that I need right now. I have considered selling the 18-200, but it has been such a good travel/vacation lens that I decided to hold on to it. Here are my options. For a zoom wide I am considering a Tokina 12-24 F/4, Sigma 10-20 F/4-5.6, or Tamron SP10-24 F/3.5-4.5. For a zoom telephoto I am looking at the Tokina 80-200 F/2.8, Sigma 70-200 2.8, or Tokina 80-200 2.8. I have read lots of reviews on all of them, but I would be interested in seeing what anyone in this forum would have to say. Since I am hindered by my D200s low light/high iso capability, I am hoping that better glass would help me out in that area. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks![/FONT]
