Courtney B
Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at Nikon lenses?
Hey courtney, that's correct. I've recently purchased a nikon D3x and am looking for compatible lenses
Courtney B
Ok, great!
What types of things do you shoot?
everything from portraits to landscapes and products
Courtney B
Ok!
Did you have an idea of what focal length you'll want for your lenses?
Also, do you prefer primes? Or zooms? Or even some of each? :-)
but i'm looking to replace the Dx lenses that i had for my D5000(my old workhorse).
Courtney B
Ok!
i see you're a photographer also, which is Awesome, but which fixed lenses do you have that can be perused ?
f2 or better and the standard 35/50mm looking for a 100-120mm Fx lens as well
Courtney B
I shoot with a 35mm f/1.4 prime mostly
It's a really great lens!
Extremely sharp
O_0 Looks good !

:-)
This is a great option for a 105mm prime lens
They also make a macro 105mm f/2.8 lens, but it's a bit slower to focus
