1llusive's current gear

Nikon D7100	Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G	Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G VR
Amazing in all respects, but seems to have poor battery life compared to my D300. Always keep a spare on me.	On a budget it takes nice portraits at f/2.8 until I can get a Tamron 60mm.	My wildlife and moon lens. The most fun of all of my lenses to use. Not fast or super sharp on the long end but it can't be beat for its price and overall quality and versatility.

Samyang 16mm f/2.0 ED AS UMC CS	Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF)	Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5
Read user's review For landscape and nightscape work, this one can't be beat. A steal at under 4 Benjamins.	Great all-around zoom. Does not autofocus during live view on my D7100, though.	Don't know what I'd do without it.

1llusive's previous gear

Nikon D80	Nikon D300	Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G II
Great starter DSLR. Of course when I saw the D300 it was love at first sight, and I had to have it ;)	Served me well for 5 years, but wanted the better (for me) ergonomics of the D7100, its features and the improved image sensor.	Good IQ, but needed something faster in both autofocus and aperture.

Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED VR	Nikon AF Nikkor 35mm f/2D	Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D
Read user's review Good range and decent IQ, but unacceptable focus field curvature.
