I need your advice on getting a FX style lens(es).
I've been looking at getting a lens somewhere between 28⁰ and 55⁰ for general photos, plus a better aperture range than my 18-200mm.
The other thing is my 24 year old son (currently a graduate student) and I have been doing stop motion animation. This work ranges from a few inches to a few feet away from the 6" subjects.
Here's the range of primes I've been looking at, but I haven't ruled out a shorter zoom. Other brand suggestions are welcome. From my research I understand using a FX lens on a DX body changes the angle of view by x1.5, so I'm open for info you might have on it.
AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.8G
AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.4G
AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/2G
AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G
Thanks for your help.
