Someone can guide me in choosing len for documentary photography?
On DX
Why you say Nikon is better than Canon , you cant say like this.

Please, I need guide as well.

Currently I got 2 lenses on my list:
1. Tokina 1224 f4
2. Sigma 1020 F4-5.6

What do you guys think about this 2 lenses or any better suggestion?

I will get 50mm 1.4g nikkor for my dx body

if i got 8k , i sure will get d700+50mm 1.4g , or d700+85mm 1.4d  , 50mm nikkor is light same 35mm on dx body .

But since you say fx lens cost more than DX , i think u go choose DX body better? haha laugh.gif

50mm 1.4g is a very very nice lens ><b

worth every cents

Depend on person

For me i prefer nikkor 50mm 1.4g eventhough sigma sharper and better bokeh .

I like lightweight, 50mm 1.4 not so bad , it is very good.
I can carry it anywhere i want , because light
*
yyea, i choose nikkor over sig because of the weight while siggy is very bulky... brows.gif

as the bokeh... izit that obvious enough to differentiate easily without putting picture from both lens side by side?

Then how the lens focus ? rolleyes.gif
Explain to me then.

How the lens focus? O.o
Based on my understanding, the SWM is just a motor. The rest is left for you to explain to me about the relationship between this motor and the "low light".

Small dslr like my D3100.  cry.gif

But i doubt that most people used up the of D3100 before they upgrade to higher level. They always put the blame on camera then follow by lens, accessories or even surroundings except THEMSELVES!!! Which is usually the main factor. doh.gif
