Guys any Good recomendation For a telephoto lens??
« on: October 07, 2012, 11:30:24 AM »
hi guys i am using a D700 body
i would like to get some opinions about which telephoto lens is good for a good bucks

Here are my choices
nikkor 80-200 AF-D 2.8
Nikkor 70-200 VR1 2.8
Sigma 70-200 2.8 APO EX DG OS HSM

IF you have insights or used or have Experiences bad or good Sides of this lenses please let me know
i'll consider any experiences you have with these telephoto lenses
i am thinking getting one Telephoto for my line up well as much as possible i want a budget friendly cause i am not getting paid in photography i am doing its just pure hobby and just for personal pleasure of taking good photos but of course Sharpness and quality shouldn't be compromised well i settled down for a 2nd hand units so any suggestion would be a great help
 :-D :-D :-D :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave:

had them all once and i will always have a thing for the vr1. the colors, bokeh and sharpness were just better than the other 2. fastest autofocus goes to sigma.

i've owned the sigma HSM II the longest only because it was the lightest. then i decided i dont want to carry a dumb bell with me during trips  :-D

Go for the 70-200mm VR1, mas rich ang color ng pics kapag nikon din na lens ang ginamit mo sa nikon body, sigma tends to be contrasty but sharper than nikon

I'd go for the Nikkor 70-200 VR1 2.8. I currently have a Nikkor 80-200 AF-D 2.8 but I'd still prefer the one with VR. Hirap! Lalo na kung 150mm pataas ang gagamitin mo. I usually bring a monopod with me. Yung Sigma? Ugh! Tried it once, kasi my friend had one. But didn't like it. Parang may tinge ng magenta yung kuha ko lagi. <_<
