[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 107192, member: 6573"] I agree with 28mm on FX. On DX, 16 to 18mm is about ok but you deal more on distortion as you go much wider or go below 35mm. Nikon 28mm f1.8G FOV on FX can be varied by using 1.2x and 1.5x (DX) mode to give you a tighter crop. Macro - I would agree with you but then again, we both have not tried the 150mm and 200mm FL. Mid-range - I hate the push and pull type. Definitely, the 24-70mm f2.8 is the better lens when it comes to medium range followed by the 24-120mm f4 VR. Long range: 70-200mm f2.8 for me and supplement it with a 300mm f4 + 1.4x TC for added reach and sharper images. The 80-400mm is just in need of an update. For portrait head and shoulders, 85mm is my preferred lens. In most cases, the Nikon 28mm f1.8G is what I grab most of the time for family portraits or as my walk-around lens. The other lenses gets action if I have a specific subject that I need to shoot. [/QUOTE]
