Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at lenses?
Did you have questions about any in particular today? Or need some help finding the right one?
I just bought a Sigma 18-300 for my Nikon. I LOVE it. Wondering if there's anything even better.
Courtney B
In terms of lenses that have that much range, the Sigma is definitely at the top of that list
Courtney B
The Nikon 28-300mm is another good option, but doesn't go quite as wide
And mine cost just under $500.
Courtney B
Yes, this one is certainly more expensive!
Oh, going to Alaska. Any lens beyond the uv I have that would help shoot glaciers?
Courtney B
Courtney B
No problem at all! :-) We all start somewhere! A polarizing filter would be nice!
That would bring out the colors a little more!
Ahah. That was the one I was wondering about. How much?
Courtney B
I think you need a 72mm filter?
Is it for the 18-300mm lens?
Yes. Guy told me it was 70 something. Normally by from you. Walked into Normans in Kalamazoo for lens cap and walked out with $500 lens.
Courtney B
I can bring up some suggestions. I just verified that it's indeed a 72mm lens
Courtney B
This would be an excellent one!
Wow. Are decent ones all that much?
Courtney B
Yes, they are going to be a bit pricey
Will it help with glacier photography?
Courtney B
This one is cheaper if you just want to try something out without investing a lot
I don't want to try it out. Going June 2017. But snow gets washed out and I've spent $100+ on photography books. They don't make sense. I just like to capture moment.
Courtney B
Absolutely understandable!
In the world of filters, $38 isn't terribly much (unfortunately). it gives you a good quality filter, but not the best either. I'd recommend going for that one if it's possible
Are you located close to Times Square?
Courtney B
I can order it now or if close I'll be at Crowne Plaza 9/12.
Courtney B
Ok! If you'd like to order it online, you can do that
Let's order it. If it help with glaciers. Will white still be white?
Courtney B
White will still be white, but your skies will be more vibrant and it will help with any glare that you might get from all of that bright white!
Courtney B
Ok! You can proceed with the order on Adorama's website. Were you able to add the filter to your cart successfully?
Courtney B
I would go $38 if possible. And not just because I want to sell you something more expensive.
It's truly a better quality filter
I don't make commission, so it doesn't matter to me how much you spend :-) But the results will be superior with the $38 filter
