No longer a newbie, moving up!
What is a list of lenses you folks think are must have lenses?
For example, for me, I like shooting sports; fly fishing, waterfowl hunting, rodeos, archery, etc. In addition to this, I also like wildlife photography and do some very little macro shooting, such as new flies for a blog and website that I am working on.
Here are the lenses on my must have list, and please comment if you think a particular lens is need or not and provide suggestions.
AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm/f.28G
AF-S VR Micro NIKKOR 105mm/f2.8G IF-ED
AF Micro NIKKOR 200mm/f4 IF-ED?????
AF-S NIKKOR 14--24mm/f2.8G ED
AF-S NIKKOR 28mm/f1.8G
AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm/f2.8G ED VR II (This Will Be My First New Lens)
AF-S NIKKOR 85mm/f1.4G
AF-S NIKKOR 200-400mm/f4G ED VR II
DREAM LENSES:
- AF-S NIKKOR 500mm/f4G ED
- AF-S NIKKOR 600mm/f4G ED
OK.....Perhaps this whole list should be "Dream List", not "Must Have's"!
What do you folks prefer when it comes to longer focal length lenses, such as 200mm and beyond; prime's or telephotos? I think today, there isn't much difference in image quality between the two.
