Re: SuperCCD was ahead of its time

Unfortunately the lenses I thought were good on my S5 show their weaknesses on the D750. It is now a costly exercise replacing them with more capable options.


Hi, Norman,

Haven't communicated with you for a long time.  The Nikkor 28-70/2.8 was great on the S5 but was doggish when I began upgrading Nikon bodies.  Inadequate glass to accommodate the resolution for larger sensors.  Still thinking about sending it to Nikon for repair just in case there is an issue

It has been a learning process with lenses and the bottom line is one needs quality glass for good imagery....and when you buy one great lens, the others are left behind or, as you say, replaced.
