p.1 #1 · Good fast prime telephoto | |
Yes, I know they are out there but some of them are giving me a heart attack. I am looking at the Nikon 200 mm f2 but that baby will take away $4,000. So I am looking at the Nikon 180 mm f2.8 and at $600 to $700 that is a lot more reasonable. So far that is my lens of choice right now.
I am using my Tamron Adaptall 200 mm f3.5. I love it and it is not even the SP version. I have a few zooms. I have the Tokina 80 to 200 mm f2.8 AF and the Canon 80 to 200 mm f2.8L IS.
Overall I don't like zoom lenses. I much rather carry a bag full of primes and run the risk of dirty sensor.
Is there any gem out there that I should be looking at? I don't mind manual focus but it has to be fast.
Oh yes I am also looking at the Tamron SP 300 mm adaptall and the price on that is not too bad.
I have Canon, Nikon, Pentax but something that fit the Nikon will be adequate because I can always use an adapter to my EOS bodies.
Oh I also have a busted up version of the Tamron 80 to 200 mm SP f2.8 Adaptall. My copy is only fair in optical quality. I guess that's why I got it as a bargain.;-)
I want something that is sharp wide open (don't we all).
Leica R is fine but they are expensive and only fit my Canon. Won't fit my Nikons. I don't know what some of the older Zeiss has.
Thanks in advance for all your thoughts.
