hi there, i'm thinking of upgrading my lenses for use in events and landscape photography..
im having these lenses in mind...

1) Tamron 28-75mm F2.8
2) Tokina 12-24mm F2.8
3) Tamron / Nikon 70-200 F.28

I ham cautious regarding the Tokina 12-24mm especially if the Tamron 28-75mm is not wide enough for indoor events as getting the Tamron 17-55mm F2.8 would be another option but I would not be getting wider angles for landscape like i would with the Tokina 12-24mm ..
><
For those who have experienced using these lenses on their Nikons, mine is a D90. do let me know ^^

u might want to consider tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 too.. its cheap, wide too  nod.gif

whats with the 70-200 2.8? for this one, if u have the budget, the need for tele, go grab it fast2  laugh.gif

haha yea not to worried abt the fast tele for now..

but for the wide angle and mids...
what combination is better? tokina 12-24 and tamron 28-75? or tokina 11-16 and tamron 17-55?

Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 OR Nikon 17-55 f/2.8 OR Nikon 24-70mm
Nikon 80-200mm....f/2.8

yea the 80-200mm is a definite for the future..lol no moneyfor that at the moment...

hmm seems like most ppl leaning on the Tokina 11-16 f2.8 with tamron 17-50 2.8 combo..
hmmm anyone has tried the tamron 28-75? or tokina 12-24 F4 is considered too 'slow'?

If you don't know which you really want, you probably need none.

landscape = Nikkor 14-24 f/2.8.
Events = Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VRII

and Tokina doesn't come out 12-24 f/2.8. Is Tokina 11-16 f/2.8.

hmm i roughly know the focal lengths i need but im just wondering which combination of lenses (third party/nikon) would be suitable for me ^^
thanks for ur feedback ^^

Tokina has a 12-24 F4 sorry for the typo ><
