Lens Ideas...

[sfaribault]

I am going to upgrade from a D70 to a D7200. I am not sure about a 'Kit Lens' so I am looking for other ideas.
Currently I have the '18-70 f3.5-4.5', a '70-300 f/4-5.6G' a Sigma 150 macro and a very old Sigma 150-500.


Looking for faster lenses. might go the 70-200, I like the 150 macro and I will look at the new 150-600 later.

What would be a good replacement lens for the 18-70 ??


Thanks

Either the Nikon 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR or the Nikon 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR.

In case if the 16-85mm it might pay to wait a bit:

New Nikon 16-80mm f/2.8-3.5 DX lens also rumored for this summer | Nikon Rumors

CAUTION!! Don't view his videos at work or any where that other people can here them. He feels the need to swear like most people breathe.

Or you could listen to a knowledgeable person who's NOT a complete d-bag. His schtick gets old in about 30 seconds, IMO, and with so many other people on YouTube putting out solid information that won't make your feel like you need to take a shower after watching, why bother?

Check out, say, Moose Peterson, for but one good example.
