[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 753295, member: 48483"] Something else I meant to comment on: The condition of the zoom lens not showing the same field of view as your prime Nykkor is named "focus creep". They should show nearly the same field of view if focused at infinity. Up close at macro distance is where they will diverge the most. I first learned of this when I bought my Tamron 18-270mm and was dismayed to discover that it was not even close to looking as zoomed-in as a Nikon 70-300mm set to 270mm. I think this winds up being a trade-off for lenses that do not extend in length when focusing. [/QUOTE]
