If anybody wants to buy me a nice present
This “Nikon AF-S VR 70-200 f/2.8 IF-ED”:http://www.europe-nikon.com/details.aspx?countryId=20&languageId=22&prodId=275&catId=121 lens would be a lovely present. Go on, go on. I’ll buy the camera, you buy the lens… it’s a wonderful wonderful lens, perhaps a bit large to bring to parties and suchlike, but hey nothing’s perfect ![]()
Okay, you won’t buy that for me, meanie! But I will have to start thinking about getting either a telephoto or zoom telephoto at some stage after I buy my new camera. Or just a plain f/1.8 50mm lens? What *do* I want? Portraits or action shots and wildlife? Every lens has its place. Aaah so much to choose from! And no wonder Nikon and Canon make so much from photographers! As you go up the scale, techy lust becomes even more obvious than usual… though at the end of the day (as many a photographer has said), you just have to go out and shoot, and practice practice practice. Many’s a perfect photo has been taken with a snapshot–the right place, the right time, and an eye for the scene.
