QUOTE(General_Nic @ Sep 25 2009, 10:00 PM) i think u dun quite nid 18-200, cos it is an indoor event n u'll be shooting portraits n group pics, hardly nid to zoom unless u nid to zoom up to the stage la if there is 1... 35 1.8 will be my choice, but if take group pics u nid step back a few steps la 18-55 is more flexible, can zoom in or take group pics easily but 35 1.8 pics output r nicer Jz my humble opinion QUOTE(project-o @ Sep 25 2009, 11:38 PM) In my opinion the 35 f1.8 enables higher shutter speeds and lower ISO also less flash power needs. I would go with that + a combination of a standard wide zoom (18-70/18-55). Anyway... I just started using the Nissin Di-622 the performance is pretty impressive and should have enough power. Thanks guys for the opinion. One more question, A or S mode better? |

Why don't get the 35mm f1.8? This is the cheapest AF prime lens for D5000.

QUOTE(den @ Oct 8 2009, 02:00 AM) Hehe. Pardon me for my shallow knowledge. Go and get AFS 35mm f1.8 price around RM800 17-50mm Tamron have everything that 50mm Nikkor offers?  Also.. how much is 17-50mm Tamron? Is it fully supported by D60?   Cheapest prime for D40/x/60/3000/5000 |
