The Nikon Talk Thread - all things everything Nikon related!

For us Nikonians here

let's discuss all things Nikon!

I'll start out! What are you guys shooting with?!

nkohler · 10-20-2009, 08:26 PM

Just recently ditched my D40 for a D90, the D300 was a little bit more than I wanted to spend and the D90 was a good price/performance compromise.

Here are a couple shots with it the past weekend, first time shooting through it with the stock 18-105mm 3.5-5.6 VR lens:

Engagement session for friends of ours:

Rest of the set HERE!

Shooting with a D80. Bought several lenses soon afterwards:

Nikon 18-135mm kit lens
Nikon 50mm f/1.4
Sigma 70mm f/2.8 macro

I have been reading some great things about the 35mm. That is next on my list and either the 18-200vr or something else that competes with it in the price range.

^I have a Nikon 55-200mm 1:4-5.6G VR Lens for sale.....
