Re: [Lens] f/2.8 wide to normal zoom for Nikon
Since you have a D80, I would suggest that you take a serious look at this lens: »www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/3···_DG.html
It costs a bit more but I've found it to be a really sweet piece of glass. All of my California shots were done with it (it's all I brought with me). On my XTi, the AF works better than any other lens I have. It's something that I think would serve you very well for a long time to come.
My box shot: »Re: The One, The Only...Box Shot Thread! (part three)
EDIT: If you plan on doing any outdoor work, don't forget the 82mm CPL. It makes for a beautiful combination.
EDIT2: This is transformed from RAW and resized for posting to show how it does a macro shot (no other processing). I need to get extension tubes! Look into the Iris:

Little Rock, AR | I second what Kringle says, I have that lens, great piece of glass.
Kinda big but a sharp lens.
But you can't go wrong with the Tamron lenses.
The 28-75mm has a reputation as one very fine lens for the money. |
