18-70 cheap cheap lah, some more it's really sharp. Don't even need to think twice to buy that lens one.
IF budget allows, get 16-85. Lagi cun whistling.gif

yup ... loving every minute of my 16-85 ... now doubting about Sigma's quality ... wondering should i sell it off after i get it changed for a Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G or not ...    rclxub.gif

wait till i get my replacement bro ... we can go out & swap lens to try out their difference in real life situations ...


Added on February 4, 2011, 1:41 am

18-70 doesnt have VR ... IQ wise both the same ... only different focal range & the 16-85 is RM2100 brand new ...

with 2k I'll just go for siggy 50mm. hmm.gif
I think I will go for 1870 instead


Added on February 4, 2011, 1:46 am
but the aperture.
f/3.5-5.6G  rclxub.gif  2k+

Of course you are paying for more range and VRII. If you don't need VR with four stops improvement, doesn't use 16-17mm, plus prefer that half F-stop more 18-70 gives you at 70mm compared to 16-85 at 70mm, go for 18-70 then. wink.gif

Haha, comparing Canon 24-70L and Nikkor 24-70 side by side. Nikkor 24-70 lens looks so much sexier. laugh.gif

some how i see Canon's black coloured 'L' lens as not good looking or highly built by just looking at them ...

i still prefer the way the Nikkor Gold Ring lens looks ... hehehe ...
*
I also dunno why. Every Canon black L lens appears damn plastic-ky to me also. But apparently, 24-70L is heavier than Nikkor 24-70. Gosh... shakehead.gif

You took out your D3s + 70200? brows.gif

Nope. 70-200 sleeps at home. 24-70 on D300 is tight enough already for that environment.
Besides, the temple was very very crowded, bro. When I was moving between the crowds, the D3s swings with the 17-35 mounted and hit a few people already. I have to apologize to them. sad.gif

Imagine 70-200 instead... shakehead.gif rclxub.gif
