I’m not a photographer. Even still, I enjoy getting a few hours here and there to play around with my Nikon D90. Not a pro model by any means, but certainly better that all of those dinky little point-and-shoots.
So far I haven’t upgraded anything on my D90. Still, I have my sights set on a bigger lens at some point. How big of a lens is only limited by my wallet. (Damn, short leash there…)
For those with a bit more monetary breathing room, Nikon’s new 200-400mm $7,000 monster is waiting to be called “yours”…
The $7k price is by no means cheap. But for the nature adventurist/sports photographer, this beast offers plenty of features such as:
- ED (Extra-low Dispersion): low reflectivity within lens
- VRII (Vibration reduction)
- Void of any aperture ring
- f4 maximum exposure
- If paired with a Nikon DX body, zoom becomes 300-600mm!
Anyone without immediately expansive pockets considering selling personal belongings and/or organs and possibly limbs to pick one up?
