Hi. I have only owned my first DSLR a Pentax K-X for about a year now and still have much to learn. However, I recently just purchased a Nikon D3200 for the crop factor and that I can select my own focus point instead of "guessing" where the camera is going to try to focus. With that being said, I have a 18-250 lens for my Pentax which I love and would love to get a 18-300 or 28-300 lens for my new Nikon for traveling purposes and ease of use. This lens will stay on my camera 90 percent of the time. Being new to Nikon, I have no idea what all the DX, or DI etc. means with a lens. I looked at a 50 1.8 and there were G, D, etc. Where can I find info on what all of those mean and also find ratings for lenses I may wish to purchase. Are there any off brand lenses that do well as to be easier on the budget? However I would much sooner buy a more expensive lens in the long run and have better pictures but just wanted to know ratings to help a newbie know what to purchase. I know that I need VR lenses for Nikon (which is different than Pentax because with a pentax the vibration reduction is built into the camera making any lens a VR lens which I will miss this feature as older lenses are less expensive and still usable without the VR but.... tradeoffs in everything I suppose....) Anyay, can anyone point me in the right direction? Also if you own a 18-300 or 28-300, which lens do you have and how is it's photo quality?
Thanks!
Thanks!
