Camera Lens


After further research, I am now leaning towards purchasing a Nikon AF-S 10-24mm DX Zoom-Nikkor f/3.5-4.5G ED instead of the Nikon AF 10.5mm DX Fisheye-Nikkor F/2.8G ED. The 10-24mm lens has 61 to 109 degree viewing angle instead of the 180 degree viewing angle on the Fisheye. Currently I have a Nikon AF-S 18-55mm DX Nikkor f/3.5-5.6G VR. The 18-55mm provides a viewing angle of 28 to 76 degrees, so I fell the 10-24mm would be a good set towards wide angle lenses, instead of going to the extreme wide angle of the Fisheye. One concern that I do have is that the 10-24mm lens is not VR - Vibration Reduction. Although the 10-24mm lens is more expensive than the Fisheye, I fell that it will provide a lot more versatility and therefore will have more opportunities to use the lens.
