Nikkor 18-70 f3.5-4.5 (D70S kitlens) and 50mm f1.8 settle all for ur needs..avoid D80 kitlens if possible..

QUOTE(scorgio @ Aug 15 2007, 02:18 PM) Reason being? U see, D80 kitlens priced at around RM800-900 while D70s kitlens around RM600 which is much sharper and better built. Of coz i assume him don't need focal length more than 70mm. |

QUOTE(wlcling @ Aug 15 2007, 06:33 PM) true that the 18-70 could be better. Add in a cheapass 70-300, and there's a good range covered... but if TS is picky about having multiple lenses, then 18-135 will be better. I think TS might prefer having the extra reach at the expense of quality for a start,- which will help in deciding what's next. (wideangles or superzooms?) But 18-135 is still not long enough, TS end up will buy 70-300 or 18-200 Or, go for the 18-200mm VR.. because it is reasonably sharp, versatile, and importantly has VR. If i had the money, I'd get one as well just for the sake of travelling light sometimes...  unless he really dun need so long..at least with 18-70, it is good quality but well, maybe he really want 18-200  but for travel sake, i would like to have Tamron 18-250 anytime than 18-200 VR |
