problem is that normally people macro for insects and other living things.. by the time you set up the tripod properly.. sudah terbang luuu haha

mind to elaborate what happen with the size and weight? I don't get it.

Am curious, does the 2870 extend when zooming?

fat and ugly IMHO. why the picture is different with the one posted in garage sales?

was about to ask that too. so just the nano coating and 4mm focal range diff.

one is white version, one is normal optical quality difference should be enough reason to buy the latest version

and if you look at the sales thread, you can see the extended part of the lens.

Nanocoat actually improves CA and also contrast. Take for example the 85D versus the 85G, the 85G has better CA control and also contrast when wide open at f/1.4

Same goes to the 70200 VR and 70200 VRII.

Tat day when I tested the 24-70 in BTS, I wonder why this such expensive lens will have the lens barrel move in n out so stupidly, Aiiz.... This means no weather seal??

Its wheather sealed

nikon never said its lenses are weather sealed. but most of us knew it from experience that the lenses can and do appear weather resistant. to what extent? well up to your luck i guess

i've used my camera with the 18-70mm in minor rain a couple of times without cover. no problem so far *touch wood*

the 18-70 do has this rubber thingie at the mount part though. not bad for a kit lens

The review on nikon 24-70mm 2.8. Can see even in minor rain can still shoot2

It's easy la
And you can focus using hyper focal also if you know how to.

Long time never spam

Not sure but photo above taken at f/2 with normal leveling without sharpen

even I bring my 1855 during rain. but still works perfectly.
weather sealed? I think for such a cheapo lens like 1855 nikon wouldn't implement that.

Little bit of rain is fine 1, except those very heavy rain

Yeah. Drizzling I still shoot. Cats and dogs, straight inside my bag.
