[QUOTE="stmv, post: 88129, member: 10038"] [LEFT][COLOR=#000000][INDENT]I was using the 18-55 lens that came with my D7000 because it was actually quite sharp. but after about 10 months it started to loose its ability to focus on all subjects. and manually focusing this lens is a pain, so,, switched to the 24-85 lens which is definitely built a notch up, I actually think the 18-55 is a bit more sharp, but the 24-85 is fairly sharp. Definitely adds more weight the camera. Another reason I like the 18-55 because it keeps it a light weight package. But, in some ways, the 24-85 makes the lens balance better, perhaps the best weight combo for this camera. I noticed that for this lens is now consider a kit lens for the D600. I might pick up a clean 18-70 DX lens. That was also a really nice lens for the price. They shipped thousands of these lens with the D70, so lots of versions out there.
