24-120 VR on the way......Received

No, it won't :smile:

 

Scott, you're not really settling. The 24-120vr is a great lens in it's own right - quite different from the Beast (tm) in many regards. What this means is that you will also need the Beast.

Seriously, I hope you enjoy your new lens, just remember, give the VR time to settle in (a half second or so, and don't expect VR to replace good hand-holding technique.

 

Nope! You will be happy with the 24-120VR for a while and then the Beast will call your name. :biggrin: Seriously, it is a great walk around lens. I sold my D70 kit and the 24-120VR lens to my brother. I wanted him to have a little more flexibility than just the 18-70. Hope you enjoy the lens! :wink:

 

Somehow I agree with the above comments, I had a lens lust on Nikon 200 mm AF Micro but settle with Sigma 180mm Macro. Now I get both Sigma 180mm and Nikon 200mm :biggrin: Nikon 24-120 VR is a fine lense, you will like it but the lust of getting the Beast will hang around :smile:

 

I think the 24-120mm is the ideal focal range for a walkaround lens. Unfortunately the copy that I tried was soft at apertures below f8 compared to my 18-70DX. I am glad that you got a sharp copy. I might try a new one myself sometime as it is a perfect solution for a vacation lens when you don't want to travel heavy.

Looking forward to your shots with the 24-120VR.

Regards,

 

Scott,

Well, don't know about breast lust, beast lust (28-70mm) maybe. A hillarious capture you have there though.

Thanks,

 

Sorry but Scott misspelled beast lust in his post on the 12th and I couldn't resist.

 

hehe, no problem. My entire office laughed histerically.

Thanks,

 

Those dogs would cure anybody. and probably the best ever looked.
