[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 116648, member: 6548"] Well I just like the 105/2.5. It is a legendary Nikkor lens known for portraits. They are cheap. You can get one for about a 100 bucks that will work with your camera. Don't worry about all that DX FX stuff right now. Someday in the next few years I think 105/2.5's are going to become expensive. Now if you ask Sam he is going to tell you a 300mm...which is sublime. :) The 50/1.8 short barrel is a neat one... The 75-150 Series E is a beautiful performer. Cheap but not so in the future. The 28/2.8 AIS is a masterpiece of modern lens manufacturing...they still make them new...the epitome of their wide angle skills....wide angle never was the domain of SLR's that was rangefinder stuff...SLR's ruled at the longer focal lengths...
