[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 313127, member: 14443"] she needs a dx lens. the 28-70 AFS is made for FF. can be used with dx, but youre limiting yourself with it for wide angle. midrange pro zoom lenses she should look at tokina 16-50 2.8 nikon 17-55 AFS 2.8 (owned it used can be found cheap) sigma 18-35 1.8 what i would buy today if I was with DX. tamron 17-50 2.8 if shes going to make money doing weddings, invest in a pro grade lens. IQ is much better. the clients are happy, youre happy. better rep, better money. its a cycle. if she wants a wide angle for DX then ask in the wide angle section. cant remember whats available for DX as I shoot FF. for group shot, no way in hell would I use a wide angle. widest I went was 28mm and thats extreme for me. when I shoot people I go back and zoom in. shot the family here with a 70-200 VR1. perfect aesthetics nicely compressed. everyone is straight. you shoot with a WA everyone looks distorted. not a good thing for your rep. everyone has a smartphone that has a WA in it. your pictures wont stand out.
