Title: image quality of a Nikon 18-55 vr
Post by: malamus on May 21, 2012, 06:07

Hi again. I'm posting in the IS part as the images will be submitted to IS so its their standards that will be the target.

On a DX I have a 50mm and 105mm leaving me short in the wider angle area. I also own a 18-55vr and I am wondering what  the pitfalls of this lens for stock are and if there is any tips/situations to avoid for using it (I used to own the 12-24 which was great , but sold it to prepare for going FF)

Thanks

If you are going full frame then probably you should get the 14-24mm.

God no, 14-24  would be far to wide for me I'd never buy that lens, 24-70 maybe. I do question the difference between some lenses  especially Nikon 16-35mm f/4 and the 17-35mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF-S NIKKOR
