Woohoo, well, almost, expected delivery Dec 1 from B&H.
I was asking a couple days back about 200-500 vs. 500pf and got some really great sage advice. After weighing the options I started thinking over my lens selections.
I have the telephoto range well covered with the 200-500 and the Sigma 100-400.
I have the super wide covered with a 11-20 Tokina (not the world's best lens but good enough for what I do with super wide).
I have macro covered with the Nikkor Micro 105mm F2.8 (stellar lens by the way).
The only lens I have that covers the middle range is a Tamron 18-400. Not a bad lens considering what it is but not in the same league as the other lenses I have.
So, what did I do? I ordered the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR
With the $500 off sale going on right now, I didn't see how I could lose. It has the reputation of being a great lens and if/when I ever move to mirrorless, with the sale going on, I can sell it and not lose my shirt.
So, in a week it will be New Lens Day for Jeff!!!!
