I am off to hong Kong - what lenses to buy

Postby ipv6ready on Sun Mar 27, 2005 11:08 am

I am sure other members have asked the question but here we go again...

mainly I take "wedding" style photos (party and such for fun), portraits and landscape like most amatuers.

I do not make money from photography

My question should I buy a...... or is there something else I don't know that I should get :?: :idea:

A. D2X :shock: "Just Dreaming"
B. 24-120 VR or 18-70mm DX
C SB-800

Also I see a member of the forum works at HKS does HKS have a retail shop? If not any guide to where in HK I should go?

I would prefer names of stores and addresses rather than general location as I will just go by taxi :D


Here is my current arsenal.....
D100
mb-d100
SB-80DX

Prime Lenses
17mm Tokina ATX Pro
24mm Nikkor AFD
50mm Nikkor AFD
105mm Micro Nikkor AF

Zoom Lenses
24-80mm Sigma EX HSM
70-200mm Sigma EX HSM
28-200mm Tamrom
I'm back
D3s D700 D200, SB-900, SB-800 x2, SB-600 x4

Very subjective topic IPv6. But in saying that, I've been having heaps of fun with my 12-24mmDX. It's my favorite lens at the moment, next to my 50mm 1.4.
