[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 647787, member: 13090"] For wide angle and normal lenses it's not a tough choice for me... I don't really crave to shoot ultrawide so the Sigma Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 OS HSM and the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art would be my starting point. These would be my walk about lenses, good for just about everything I shoot. Choosing a tele-zoom is more complicated but I'll go with the Sigma Sigma 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM if I *have* to choose a true "DX" lens for the sake of argument. It's out of production but copies can still be had and they're worth going after; the newest version is larger and heavier but it's there if you fell compelled to buy NIB. This would be my go-to portrait lens but it's flexible enough for everyday use. The Sigma 50-100mm f/1.8 Art would be a very close second, or the Sigma 135mm f/1.8 Art. For a really big zoom I'm not sure what I'd do... At least not without breaking into FX lenses; I've been shooting full frame for a long time and I'm a little out of touch with DX glass. [/QUOTE]
