First thing, ditch the macro. Second, ditch the tripod and 50 unless/until you want to shoot at night. Camera plus 24-120 is all you are going to need. What sites to shoot? Just point your...

I agree with the previous poster, thought of this before I read that post: the 300-800 Sigma super Bigma, $24,000. However, I'd sell it and then buy D800, 14-24, 24-70, 70-200 2.8's, 300 f4 w/TC...

Um, sounds to me from your lens options that you are in the amateur enthusiast category. I'd forget about upgrading your midrange zoom with an off-brand midrange. . Posters always buy these...

You've got a head start on prime FX set with 50 and 105 micro. On the wide end, you could get a 28 f1.8 Nikkor, wider than the off-brand 35 and you could crop the shot given all the FX body...

m4/3 has a much bigger sensor than Nikon 1's, and Nikon 1 bodies are no smaller than m4/3. m4/3 has it on lens availability hands down.

You sound like you are having 'buyer's remorse' about the 18-35 before you even buy it. Only you can decide whether high speed vs. a few silly millimeters (8 vs. 11) is more important. No-one can...

To the OP: You've got the lens already, invest another $23 in a Rainbow imaging adapter and see if you like it. Recall that, on m43, you have close to a 300mm (well, 270 FL equiv) f2.8 Nikon lens...

To the OP: Is it "worth it"? It's so (relatively) cheap that buying it is a no-brainer. Is it "too wide?" Only YOU can decide that. (I own it, use it for low-light/street shooting, like it...
-
To the OP: There are a couple of threads right now going on addressing this and related issues. I'd suggest joining that thread.
Cheap 20mm? I own 20mm f1.8 Sigma and am very satisfied with...

To the OP: You are obviously a very nice and patient person who wants to get an expensive piece of equipment working correctly.
However, after all the other posters have given you their ideas,...
-
To the OP: First, ask yourself whether - for some reason - you are not just bored with your current gear (however expensive), leading you to want to start buying primes. Second, make sure you...

"Ethically" is the wrong question to ask. Ethics refers to some specific written code.
If you mean, "morally," then it depends on whose mores you are following. Personally, I think you are...

If you are going to be serious about weddings, etc., you can't spend $ on off-brand high speed zooms. People buy them, then complain about their being fuzzy wide open. And of course you only get...

You have two factors: aesthetic and resale value. Only YOU can decide which factor is more important, not us. We can't talk you into anything. Silver obviously looks better.

I just came back from mostly Paris w/a couple of excursions) with the same photographic objectives you have for Central Europe. This time (I went 9 years ago too), I did not take my DSLR and...

Hi. The reason most reviews don't mention WA bokeh is because bokeh is regarded as a characteristic more relevant to portraits and head vs. background separation in normal to short/medium/portrait...

Well, actually, Sigma is merely replowing previously cultivated ground. In the mid-'70s, they produced a 135 f1.8 lens distributed by Spiratone, Inc. (NYC mail order firm, with an actual store in...
-
On m43, it's a 35-70 zoom range equivalent, so it is really a high speed near-normal FL w/framing zoom flexibility to use for low light/street shots. Otherwise, I don't see much use for it. For...

Welcome to this Forum. Without reading lens tests or seeing pictures, no-one can answer your question However, since all lenses are typically stopped down for landscapes, often used on a tripod,...

To the OP: what you did wrong was to buy the Sigma 24-70 rather than the real deal Nikkor.
