[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 105208, member: 9240"] As I mentioned elsewhere, I took some advice from Rick M. to heart and decided to go with a set of 1.8G primes instead of considering the 24-70mm 2.8. I love the convenience of the zoom, but have to be honest and say that the 28-85 kit lens I got with the D600 is something I'm rather happy with for walking around, so having some good, "tack sharp" primes sounded appealing. I do a lot of landscape stuff, so started with the 28mm which arrived last Friday. I have busy as all get-out at work, but every Saturday morning (weather permitting) I take a walk into town, camera in hand. It's something I started this year after living here for 21 years, and I have to tell you that it has allowed me to get to know a place I have largely ignored during my drives through and bonded me to the area and it's history - simply because I can see it at a photographer's pace a LOT better than at 30 mph. It wasn't a spectacular day for shooting, and I probably spent more time getting to know how it was wide open. I have to tell you, I'm very impressed. These are all with my D600, all wide open at 1.8. I tried some with the D7000 later in the day as well, but alas there was some major backfocus going on and nothing was worth sharing unless you want to see backfocused issues.
