[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 126340, member: 12214"] Rick, there is nothing wrong with being a lens snob. I think I have been one from the beginning. You still cannot beat the results of a prime as compared to a zoom. I think that is why I always lean towards a prime lens. Also, you can get faster prime lenses than zooms. I like fast lenses because you cannot always use a flash in low light situations. I also am not a fan of non-mfr lenses. I realize that not everyone can afford Nikon lenses and that a lot of the other lenses, such as Sigma, Tokina, Tamron, etc. are really good lenses, and definitely help make a variety of lenses available that people may not otherwise be able to afford, but I still prefer Nikon lenses for Nikon cameras. That's just me, and I am not judging anyone for the lenses they use. Use what works and don't worry about it. :) [/QUOTE]
