    Tamron 24-70 VC

    I bought this lens about 6 months ago and it is just not working well for me. I am constantly using my 70-200 Tamron or my 50 Prime. So I am looking for something a little wider. My problem is the trade in value when I called the local shop was rather low in my opinion. This was obviously a...

    I have a d600 with a fresh shutter from nikon that has been collecting dust since I received my d750 as soon as it was released. I was keeping it as a backup but haven't used it once. I was thinking of dumping it for something smaller/light for my wife but still able to accept my 1.4 - 2.8...

    Tamron 70-200 VC USD

    THIS IS MY EDITED RANT LOL Move to second post for me to make a little more sense lol Well I got it and it has me banging my head against the wall to the point that it might be going back. My cons are - The VC in this lens does not seem nearly as good as my Tamron 70-300. There is a slight...

    I need a macro asap.

    Tamron 90 VC Nikkor 105 VR I'm leaning towards Tamron however I already use the nikkor 85 g for portraiture. I was then thinking the 105 would give me macro + another portrait length. We are talking like a 300$ difference though for another 20 mm over the 85. Thoughts?

    Question #3 - overexposure

    Boy I'm on a roll today. I was testing my sigma 35 1.4 today and everything appeared to be overexposing. Kinda of upset.... This is my second one. It seemed like -1 in exposure compensation fixed it perfectly. I then threw on my 85 1.8g. Same thing. I've never notised it before but I...

    Question #2 - Grips

    Well my wife once told me that bigger is better. So I am using that as grounds to buy a battery grip and remind her of what she said when she gets the bill.... Is the 270$ Nikon version worth the $$ though. What are some good 3rd parties that people have experience with?

    Tamron 24-70 VC

    Well, I have this $1000 dollar credit I got from adorama and I am torn on what to do with it. I've always used primes. The credit was from my returned sigma 35 1.4. It had some serious focus issues. My problem is that I would much rather have a zoom. The issue is I know I will compare the...

    135 prime

    Any rumors of a Nikkor 135 1.8g? I seen the 105 macro 2.8 but I just know as soon as I pull the trigger a 135 will be announced. Are there any other logical upgrades to my 85g to get little more range outside of the macro? Would rather have 85 to 135 than 105.
