[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 143307, member: 9240"] For the curious non-clickers out there, here is the list, which is conspicious in its failure to include a 50mm prime of any kind!! [B]With cameras like the D800E, which are suited to photography of visually complex subjects, maximizing lens resolution is vital. Though results will vary from lens to lens, the greatest contrast all the way to frame peripheries can generally be achieved at an aperture setting two to three stops down from maximum aperture. Some lenses that offer excellent resolution are listed below.
