nikon lenses 70-300 os question by .::LJS::.: for all you Equestrian Event Photographers... lens question?
I do mainly Equestrian Show Jumping photography and I am looking for a new lens. I just got a brand new Nikon D3s. I am trying to decide between either the Sigma 120-400 F4.5-5.6 DG APO OS HSM or the Nikkor AF VR 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED. Also, will these lenses be ok with a tele-converter? Because when I shoot in stadiums I need a little extra zoom sometimes..... Right now I just have been using a cheap 70-300 Quantaray lens...not very happy with it.

Thanks!
I am also open to other options

Nikon D5000 Lens and Video Test Footage 55-200/18-55/70-300

Getting a feel for the Nikon D5000 with three tele lenses. Nikkor 55-200 Nikkor 18-55 Nikkor 70-300 Lighting was from a 95 watt house lamp with a yellow lamp shade attached. Tripod was a cheap dynex video tripod. I was too lazy to go and get the manfrotto. So there is wobble in the video and shake. In my opinion the video is decent, I will be using this d5000 as a B camera to my HMC150 for some shoots. Definitely not the best camera for DSLR video but with a decent lens collection I feel it's very possible to create some very extraordinary scenes in the right hands. There is a lot of CMOS "wobble" when moving around too much, a good tripod is highly recommended.

nikon lenses 70-300 os question by Gagan Singh: Lens for Nikon D3100 - VR/OS vs Price Range?
Hello all, first time posting a question here, hope to get some great responses icon biggrin Sigma 70 300mm F/4 5.6 DG OS SLD Super Multi Layer Coated Telephoto Lens for Nikon AF Mount Digital SLR Cameras

So I am new to photography, I purchased a Nikon D3100 two months ago with an 18-55 VR kit lens. I am now searching to add two more lenses to my arsenal to help me learn.

For the first one I have already decided the Nikon 50mm f1.8, but for the second I was looking for a zoom lens. Particular Sigma's 70-300 APO

http://www.adorama.com/SG70300AMNKG.html

Now this does NOT have Vibration reduction/ Optical Stabilization. The version of the 70-300 that does is priced at $ 369-$ 399

http://www.adorama.com/SG70300OSNKG.html

Now, as a beginner, that $ 400 mark is beyond me, I am not going to dish out that much, I can't.
Is the VR REALLY worth that mark up? Wouldn't a tripod do the same thing? What situations require VR?

If VR is really important, would I be better off going with Sigma's 50-200 that has VR/OS http://www.adorama.com/SG5020045NKG.html

And also, since I have only listed Sigma, a third party lens manufacturer, is there another brand that may be cheaper and better? Nikon's own lenses do get very pricey....

Thanks!
In response to the_camera_guy, I will hardly use autofocus icon biggrin Sigma 70 300mm F/4 5.6 DG OS SLD Super Multi Layer Coated Telephoto Lens for Nikon AF Mount Digital SLR Cameras Really the only time I set up autofocus is when I give the camera to my mom to use xD

So the ability to autofocus or not is not a big deal for me. The only situation is may be useful is when I use my D3100 to shoot skits, sketches, and short films with my friends. I know of that internal noise which is why I have a Zoom H1 external recorder, heh.

Answer by the_camera_guy
Out of the three Sigma lenses you listed, only the 50-200mm is able to autofocus with your D3100 because it has a built-in HSM motor (other lenses all rely on the camera's motor to focus, which the D3100 lacks). As you mentioned, the 50-200 also has OS, which pretty much automatically makes it the best choice out of the three lenses.

Another lens you should really consider is Nikon's own 55-200mm VR, available here for $ 220: http://www.adorama.com/NK55200VRU.html

Nikon 70-300 4.5-5.6 vs Sigma 70-200 2.8 Which to buy Part 2

When it comes to purchasing a lens what is the most important thing to look at, the f stop. The large the f stop the more light you are going to let in. The more light you let in the better your image quality tends to be. In Part 2 we dive more into why a 2.8 lens is the right choice for you even if you are just starting out.

nikon lenses 2.8 70-200 question by fledermmaus: photography similar lenses to Nikon 70-200 2.8 and Nikon 17-35 2.8 ?
hi i need to know which lenses would do the job for these lenses
Nikon 70-200 2.8 and Nikon 17-35 2.8 ?
since these i can not afford them i want to buy some cheaper lenses
thanx

nikon lenses 2.8 70-200 best answer:

Answer by Shorty
hi on what body will you be using your lenses on?

If you are using a DX camera, the kit lens (18-55mm) will replace the 17-35mm f2.8 quite nicely. The 17-35mm was built for the full-frame camera; on a DX camera, it's ultra-wide angle becomes wasted. Alternatively, if you were going for an ultra-wide angle, consider the Tokina 11-16mm f2.8. It offers roughly the same coverage at the wide end as the 17-35 does on full frame.

For the 70-200mm f2.8, you can consider alternatives from Sigma and Tokina. Both make 70-200mm f2.8 lenses at a significantly cheaper price than Nikon.

WP Photography - Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 VR1 Review (with Nikon TC-20E II)

A video review of my new lens, the Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR and Nikon's 2x teleconverter. This lens was purchased for my portraiture work but today I took it to a country park to test it out as a setup for wildlife photography to play with the teleconverter. The lens is fantastically sharp and I try to cover all the main points about this lens that make it worth the money it costs. A very good lens for all kinds of work. I hope to show it again in a video of how I use it most and where I think it is best, portraiture. Any questions or comments, fire away!
