@op nice pictures you have here.... always knew u a photographer and how much did u get you d600 over there...

SmooshCHN:
Thanks for the complement. I hope to be a better photographer. Well, $1000 or whatever the equivalent is in nair (body only) and Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 $250.

Brimmie:


What do you think of Sigma 24-70mm on D5300 for Videography?

SmooshCHN:
The Nikon D530o is an APS-C Camera (crop frame) while the 24-70 is a zoom lens for full frame. If you put the lens on that body, your focal length would be multiplied by 1.6 (crop frame factor) so you'll be seeing 38-112mm whic isn't good. Sigma and Tamron makes a 17-50mm F/2.8 (same as 24-70mm on a Full-Frame Camera) though the Tamron is optically better and has a VC which is great for video i don't know of the Sigma. Be careful to check if the lens you like is for Full-Frame of crop frame. Check out lenshero.com and input your camera choice.

Thanks.

I think I need to read more on Full-Frame/Crop-Frame Cams.

But do you think Sigma and Tamron are better alternatives for the Expensive Nikon Lenses? And which of the 2 is better?

Try to check this link;
It's Sigma Vs Tamron Vs Nikkor Lens
http://photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00cwvm

SmooshCHN:
I've checked it. For what it's worth, you won't go wrong with either the Tamron or Sigma especially their VC model. I always pick Tamron cos I've tested the Sigma and the Tamron 24-70mm with VC and there was constant flaring and chromatic aberration in the Sigma and the Tamron sometimes won't cut it when it comes ghosting. The truth is non I worse. If you want a bang for buck, get the body only, and get a prime lens if you want outstanding quality over zoom

More grease to your joints op, and pls permission to use some of your pics as my wallpaper. Thanks

jaydee87:
am thinking of buying the d600... and the 17-50mm how much is it pls... I reside in Lagos...

SmooshCHN:
Thanks for the wishes and Yes you can use them.OK staying in Lagos, that's easy. Please and please don't make mistake. Check out stuffs well. Nikon D600 is a Full frame Camera while the 17-50mm F/2.8 is for Crop frame cameras. There are specific lenses and focal length for full-frame and Crop frame cameras and they should not be confused with one another.
For example lenses starting with 17mm, 55mm are usually for Crop frame cameras. 24-70, 70-200, 70-300mm are primarily full frame lenses.
If you use the 17-50 on the Nikon D600, it'll be a wide angle lens and worse will be, your camera quality from 24megapixel will be adjusted to 12 or more or lower because you're not using your required focal length. Check lenshero.com and input the camera of your choice and you'll be shown it's compatible lenses and you can also select the type of lens you want, wide angle to telephoto. Please make sure you do more research.

I can help you get the Nikon D600 for 185k for body only. Nikon D610 for 192k. You can compare the prices online.
