[QUOTE="Burt, post: 844292, member: 68616"] I will try to repost what I wrote yesterday, that for some reason got deleted... Thank you for helping me in making the right decision... I went ahead and bought the Z 24-120 lens... Your reply "You will appreciate the extra reach of the 24-120mm" was the tipping point for my decision as with the DX 16-50, while I always enjoyed the weight and length of the lens, as I do go for long walks holding the camera in my hands, several times it did happen that I wasn't able to get close enough to take the picture I wanted.. I then purchased the Z 28-400, but that turned up to be a bit too heavy to carry around by hand. Still a great lens, and I'm sure I will use it from time to time, especially for wildlife subjects, but not for long walks... I did find online a new AF 24-120 that was selling around the $500 but then with the FTZ adapter, it would be still too big in length to carry around... Once again, thank you BF Hammer for explaining and helping me in the right direction. Much appreciated... (y) [/QUOTE]
