[QUOTE="Mister, post: 52785, member: 9348"] I have the Nikon D7000 and this 16MP camera is very, very, picky when it comes to lenses, and it seems to LOVE the Rokinon. The photos come out extremely sharp. The newer Nikon lenses are comming out very good, GLASS wise, the constuction sucks!! I refuse to spend $500 on a lens costruction as the new 1.8G. I did buy the Nikon 35mm 1.8G but that's because i sold the older and much much less sharp 35mm f/2 lens and with that money i spent the $199, but that's about it, i know how cheap these newer lenses are mechanically, they wont last that long as the older ones. I love Nikon, but the Rokinon IS a high quality lens. Trust me, i feel better having a high quality lens for $299 then a $1200 Zeiss lens that performs nearly the same or just as equal, and the rest of the money, well, i can buy a ton more things i want :) Name brands don't make me feel any better. Some people feel and think they are more "important" if they drive in a BMW or Mercedez, but at a fraction of the cost a Hyundai Genesis performs and feels just as good, or even better. [/QUOTE]
