[QUOTE="hark, post: 683664, member: 13196"] [MENTION=13090]Horoscope Fish[/MENTION] - is this a lens you own? The problem with a zoom such as the Tamron 18-400mm is image quality generally isn't as good on such an extended focal length. You are doing yourself a favor by going with a couple shorter zooms. My question is since you own a DX body, the 24mm end isn't very wide. That's why DX bodies tend use 18mm as their starting length for a wide zoom. I don't have any suggestions for you, but there are f/2.8 zooms that start around 17mm or 18mm which might be a better alternative. That is unless you are considering upgrading to FX in the future.
