just to articulate another recent event over the phone with Kerrisdale cameras, i will never shop there if its the last friggin camera store on the planet.
seems like an easy question, will you price match this certain item which is cheaper at Broadway or Lens&Shutter?
answer, yes, no, maybe. come on down, we'll let you know. we do, most of the time, but am not sure. jebus.
^ I ended up getting the new tamron 18-270, I love it, it definitely is lighter and more compact, and a great all around walking/traveling lens Posted via RS Mobile
Yea, there's not a whole lot of literature on the 17-50mm, the stuff that I have come across say's that it's sharper than the Nikon 17-55m f2.8 and Canon 17-5mm f2.8.
It also have OS, (VR or IS etc)which the Nikon doesn't have. It's also 1/2 the price. LOL.

Ya, i've been reading up on reviews about it as well - thought long and hard about upgrading.
but 2 things bug me - the rotating front element - which sucks if you use a CPL - as well as the non-USM equivalent (which isn't that big a deal I guess)
but that's why it's probably cheaper.

I have the Nikon 17-55mm right now.. I wonder if I should have got the Sigma instead. Seems to be a winner, and according to DxOmark, sharper than the Nikon... I've been finding that I can't hand hold anything slower than 1/50s. I miss VR/IS/OS.

oops, misread the article.
seems like a good choice for Nikon!

What would you buy D90 with 18-105 or 18-55 & 55-200? Thanks. Posted via RS Mobile
I think it's preference, IIRC the 18-55 has better quality than the 18-105 which can get pretty distorted. however the 18-105 is a pretty practical lens for focal range and that might suit your needs better. You can usually get away with just taking the 18-105 out with you.
The 55-200 is a pretty sharp lens for the price too,
After seeing the reviews on you youtube of the Sigma 17-50mm OS. Kinda condering it now. But the Tamron 18-270mm PZD is still on my mind also.. I could use that extra zoom..
i think the aperture, OS effectiveness, and sharpness are just incomparable. huge difference. if you can't tell the difference then by all means, go with the 18-270. most users will tell you to get a separate zoom for the occasional shot if you think you will need it.
"Planar" & " Distagon" are types of lens designs. Which Planar & Distagon lenses do you want to try? I know Leo's has the new Zeiss lenses for Canon & Nikon and Genesis Matrix just received a full set of CP lenses.

Well I was rather interested in the 35mm f1.4 Distagon or perhaps the older version too. I'm just curious about the feel and using these lens.. how much approx to rent them?
