[QUOTE="Winthor, post: 830046, member: 56726"] Thanks Mark! Your reply gave me something to think about, big time. I love the amount of detail and feeling of depth I can get on a full-frame wide angle. More fun than it was on aps-c, you're right. Thanks. Oh yeah those Z zoom lenses seem just awesome. Unfortunately the F mount of my d800 and d850 really doesn't have a whole lot of glass that sharp at a size and weight as low as the Z series. Towards the end of DSLR some lenses came out on F mount from third-parties that were getting to be really good (Tamron's G2 zooms and their SP f/1.8 primes. And Tokina's 24-70 2.8 seems sharper than the G series Nikon). I'm very glad I went to the forums for advice! I bought the Nikkor 24mm 1.8G ED after hearing people's opinions on [I]not [/I]having a wide angle lens in their repertoire. A guy on another site said he would go for what he has none of, before going for increased sharpness of what he did. That, and Mark's reply above (top one) made a whole lot of sense to me. The wide end, especially on high megapixel full-frame, is a great perspective when you have a sharp lens to capture it all. And I already have lenses that can capture portraits. In fact, [I]all [/I]of my lenses can make a decent portrait. And bokeh, like someone said on a post i made to another site, changes on the 70-200 2.8 depending on the length of zoom. And by 200mm the subject separation at 2.8 is very strong. So I'm likely not missing something huge in my telephoto photography. But I am missing huge in the wide. Thanks guys. [/QUOTE]
