nikon_35dxNikon AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8 G

Pros: Ridiculous price and possibility to use on FX without vignetting

Cons: nothing

Opinion: with extreme amazement mounted on nikon D750 fx does not vignette now that my health conditions allow me to photograph only with the right hand and sitting on the cart with the d750 and this 35 with the ridiculous weight I do not have any difficulty in photographing freehand with one hand and, I say thank goodness I also tried to multiply it with kenko 1.4x is absolutely not bad

nikon_d7500Nikon D7500

Pros: To be DX is super complete----- same Qi as the D500

Cons: nothing

Opinion: bought new nital in physical store in 2020 I always carried it with me instead of the other2 fx because it is versatile in any type of situation as well as very manageable and as soon as I get back on track a little bit with physiotherapy I will use it on the new benrokh-25 tripodunfortunately with the stroke that struck me I have to forget the freehand shots I have the movement only with right hand and right leg

sigma_tc2001Sigma 2x TC-2001

Pros: Impeccable, robust and tropicalized construction. Includes two very low dispersion SD lenses.

Cons: absolutely nothing.

Opinion: The TC2001 should only be used with the lenses to which it is dedicated! In combination with the Sigma Sport 70-200 f/2.8 it returns sharp images almost equal to the smooth used lens and autofocus absolutely does not lose its responsiveness. It still costs less than the respective of the brand body machine is this is certainly an advantage. I repeat, after reading the previous comments, ct should only be used with the lenses to which it is dedicated.... combining it with other lenses of different brands/types incurs at best malfunctions if not worse.

nikon_300_f4Nikon AF-S 300mm f/4 D ED

Pros: Sharpness, quite light, all metal construction, excellent workmanship.

Cons: at the moment nobody

Opinion: The lens in question, although it has no stabilization, can be used quietly freehand, even if it is not a feather. The yield is also excellent at TA free of chromatic aberrations. By mounting its dedicated CT (TC14EII, TC17EII) the sharpness does not degrade and the overall contrast remains equal to the smooth. To combine it with the TC17EII you have to have a machine body able to manage the AF at least up to f/8, it becomes a 510mm f/6.7. On the other hand, these information are also given in its attached manual. It should not be used with other TC !!! This is absolutely to be considered, except you can combine it with the Kenko 300Pro 1.4 DGX, where the results are very similar (almost equal) to the TC14EII. Its RR is 0.27x not as incorrectly mentioned in the card with 0.25x. Multiplying it with the TC17EII the RR becomes o.46x, which allows you to make really pushed close-ups (we could also call them macro) and of extreme image quality.

nikon_d750Nikon D750

Pros: High-level camera for overall professional photo rendering.

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: The D750 is a camera that sits well in the CD bands. Professional. The ergonomics is well studied with easily accessible controls, even under unfavorable conditions. The menu is intuitive and quick to set up, thanks to the multiple buttons that can be configured by the user. The sensor is excellent with dynamic range of as much as 13.9 EVs and saturation at 78 keV, few machines on the market come to these levels, and above all they are of higher price range. At present there are still new specimens, at a truly affordable price.

nikon_85_f1-8gNikon AF-S 85mm f/1.8 G

Pros: Excellent not only for portraits but also as medium bright canvas.

Cons: absolutely nothing

Opinion: After a few thousand shots, I can describe this excellent indeed excellent goal. Its scope of use on FX is intended for portraits, but not exclusively because it has a great rendering of detail when used as an average canvas. Used on APS-C (DX) it becomes a canvas, comparable to a 135mm, very bright given its opening f/1.8. In this case, even in view of the relative minimum distance of MAF (0.8m) it is well used to take detailed details. It must be said, moreover, that it is as tropicalized as the whole series (24,28,35,50 and 85) of which it is part. In practice it can be used in all climatic conditions and does not contribute to the injection of dust/humidity towards the camera sensor. The price is very affordable, although lately I see that it has risen significantly. Goal to be seriously considered.

kenko_1-4x_proKenko Pro 300 DGX 1.4x

Pros: Perfect match with all goals, very low price

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: I use it more strongly with the Tokina ATX-PRO 100mm F/2.8 D Macro and the pairing is perfect, from a qualitative point of view it seems to have a lens without teleconverter. Identical behavior on both the D750 and the D5300. It does not produce aberrations or distortions whatsoever. Although used with not-so-bright zooms (f/5.6 - 6.3) it produces excellent results in terms of sharpness and contrast. Very recommended for macro, as with it you exceed RR 1:1, without image degradation.

nikon_afp70-300vrNikon AF-P DX 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G VR

Pros: FAST AF, featherweight, ok stabilizer

Cons: It's not a 300mm as stated, but a 224mm! Color aberrations evident at the focal max.

Opinion: I found that by comparing the Nikkor AF-P DX 70-300 F/4.5-6.3G ED VR with the Tamron SP AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 OF VC USD, there is a significant difference in focal or places both at 300 mm, the Nikkor had a greater angle of field. From additional verphic with measuring tools (theodolites, pickets etc) I could calculate the actual focal. To the astonishment it turned out to be a 230mm (to be exact 224mm !) at the limit of the zoom, but in the EXIF of the photo you read 300mm. In fact, even by zooming in on intermediate values, it proportionally gave results to scale... So it's a 60-230mm target.... The test was performed on the DX D5300 and on the FX D750. Having a "230" mm disguised as 300mm, then f/6.3, seems to me a rip-off!

tamron_70-300vcTamron SP 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD

Pros: Very sharp to all focal points, precise AF

Cons: No one and not having ihaved it before!

Opinion: The lens is excellently crafted, on par with the Nikon equivalents. If of thermoplastic material, it does not make species in the manegeability and solidity. On the other hand, if it were made of metal, its weight would be greatly affected. At the end of the day having a 70-300 weighing only 765g in your hands is a considerable advantage, it does not disturb freehand photography. The stabilizer is great in any situation to the point of giving up the tripod. The sharpness is in the norm, comparable to the most embattled of the usual top brands. To have the same image quality with a Nikon lens you have to spend 3-4 times more, so I would say the value for money is great. It is worth choosing as a viable alternative. At the end of the day, what you pay for in more than a top brand-name lens is the brand and the advertising that comes with it, not the quality.

tamron_70-300macroTamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro

Pros: it's cheap! (end of pros)

Cons: Almost everything...

Opinion: I marvel at how an industry like TAMRON persists in producing and selling a bad lens like this. Handling it feels like you're dealing with a toy camera! Built entirely of plastic (very light) apart from the bayonet which is aluminum (neancho milled well!). Apart from this which could be a personal opening, the quality of the photos is really poor: sharpness under the sufficiency at all openings; sci-fi chromatic rendering with absurd colors when compared to the real; autofocus to forget, even in optimal light conditions; difficult manual focus, due to the approximate construction of the dial, which suffers from very large yolths; macro function not to even consider. Overall it barely adds enough for the price that is toy. From my point of view it can only be purchased to match the cheapest sLLrs to use in those situations where there is a real risk of losing equipment.

sigma_17-50_f2-8_osSigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM

Pros: sharpness, fast and quiet af, price

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: Purchased new with seals. I don't understand the sometimes negative reviews about this lens... The autofocus, for which so much is spoken, is quiet, precise and fast. To put it mildly, it is a performance between the Nikon AF-S and AF-P. The sharpness is noteworthy, because it is on par with their Nikon counterparts but they cost three times as much! The construction is very solid and robust. The weight is right. 600g: It should be remembered that having too light a grip in your hand leads to inevitable defects such as choppy. micromove and blur. It has no chromatic aberrations even in situations of very marked backlight/contrasts. The stabilizer is great and guarantees at least three stoppages advantage. It can also be used for professional use given the precise construction and reliability of the guineas and mechanisms. Rating: 10

nikon_afp18-55vrNikon AF-P 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 G DX VR

Pros: AF fast, it only comes in kit

Cons: Approximate construction, shoddy materials, plastic bayonet, zoom dial that goes in jerky, short-focused chromatic aberrations, bad Autofocus in videos, very strong vignette to almost all focal and diaphragms.... I could add more but I'll stop here

Opinion: Slow to say the least ridiculous! If they give it to you in kit is also fine, you can use it as a body cap machine(!). Seriously, after trying it/used for a long time to convince me that it was not really a crap, something good there is (very little). With VERY light from decent results only to 35 and up focals. For the rest it leaves a lot to be desired: Construction too light/delicate, does not absorb the natural movements of photographing and you have to constantly use VR (NOTE: in my life, 45 years of photography, I never needed the stabilizer!). Zoom inwide position (18 mm) slams into the window at the end of the race (I think put them on purpose so as not to split the mirror). The brightness is not as stated but from the measurements you can safely add a stop, it becomes a 4.5 - 8. Strong vignette.

tokina_11-16_f2-8_v2Tokina AT-X Pro 11-16mm f/2.8 DX II

Pros: Sharpness, build robustness

Cons: only for aps-c

Opinion: For scruples I add an osseration to the opinions displayed in this section regarding the "alleged" flare: after numerous shots in critical condition (light, "burnt" highlights, etc.), I can see that the lens in question does NOT suffer from flare, but light Purple Fringing at the edges, where the highlights are burned. This is due to the wrong exposure and composition of the frame; just close the diaphragm a little and recompose, even underexing of a stop makes the problem disappear. That said, given the speciality of the focal, it must be used by well-known hands to enhance the richness of detail obtainable from this optics, truly remarkable. It can compete well with more ephaly and expensive optics, as well as overcome them from a constructive point of view (cf. Nikkor). As for the weight, I can say that's fine: it weighs the right. If the optics are not stabilized the higher weight becomes important: the heavier it is, the better it can absorb vibrations (but this is a topic that would require a dedicated post). Ultimately great goal, not for beginners.
