[QUOTE="Bullet, post: 687257, member: 45679"] Hi all, I just recently switched from Pentax K1 to a D500 so I can do some birding. I bought the Nikon 200-500mm in the same purchase. Now I need to add some lenses without breaking the bank. With my previous FF I had a 28mm, 40mm, and a 100mm Macro. I always wanted more reach and also a wider angle. Reach is taken care of. I am considering the Tamron 35mm f1.8 and the Tokina 14-20 f2.0. I am thinking the 35mm can replace my 40mm for normal photography, though with a narrower field of view on the D500. The Tokina can be my go to for landscape, storms/clouds, and Milky Way pictures. 1200.00 dollars for both is within my budget. I like they are not extremely heavy despite their fast apertures. Any thoughts on these two lenses or alternatives is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
