[oOdhanOo]

is 14-24mm suitable for nikon d5100?pls reply.thanks.

[QQQQcon]

@oOdhanOo No, the nikon 10-24mm is a much better lens for dx cameras

[oOdhanOo]

@QQQQcon thanks.

What is the minimum focal length for landscape shooting? I want a landscape lens too on My D7000 DX camera. 14mm x 1.5 crop = 21mm field of view sounds pretty wide to me. But apparently its not?

Is the 10-24mm at F10 as sharp as the 14-24mm at F10?

[QQQQcon]

@Thecookingfreak They are probably close to the same. I wouldnt get a 14-24mm for a dx camera

[hectorreyesLIVE]

@QQQQcon You wouldnt get one, yet you shot it on the D300s correct?

[QQQQcon]

@hectorreyesLIVE no, i have been using fx for a couple years now

[ThatSillyMosher]

what's you opinion on the tokina 10-24 because i really can't afford the nikon one but i want to start landscape/wide-angle

[QQQQcon]

@ThatSillyMosher if you mean the tokina 12-24mm it is a amazing lens.

[Bassbuilding]

The 12-24 is far better than the 10-24.

[phonedork]

If your a DX user get the Nikon 10-24, because with the 1.5 crop factor a 14-24 mm will be 21-37mm. That is not wide enough. The 3.5 aperture still gets nice night shots while using a tripod with slow shutter speeds.

[phonedork]

@phonedork Also I use a ISO of 100 for no noise. The night shots come out really good still since I am using a tripod. Only if I shoot while holding the camera do I need to up the ISO to compensate for the slow shutter speed@3.5 aperture..

[stefanau7]

When i first saw your reviews i thought to myself r u serious?! But after listening to some you seem fairly objective, give good arguments and best of all you have experience so all the best for you!

Thanks bro this was much useful jus got the 10-24mm very impressed!! almost got the 14 but i don't have a full frame.

[MrD0BR0]

nice video, but the one vs. the other is a bit like the 24-70 f/2.8 vs. the 16-85 VR...

[vancouverdogdowncast]

excellent explanation. the one thing u forgot is the price tag that comes along with the 14-24. it might change a few minds for those who own a dx camera. the 14-24 is about $2000 brand new while the 10-24 is half of that.

[turtleman220]

whats the difference between DX and FX?

[QQQQcon]

a dx camera has a sensor that is 1.5x smaller than an FX sensor. An FX sensor is equivalent to a 35mm slide of film in size.

[pedalman]

An camera body with an FX sensor the same as 35mm or "full frame", so if your lens is a 100mm you will get 100mm .

A Nikon DX sensor is smaller 1.5x so your 100mm lens will give you 150mm.

Canon is 1.6x so you would get 160mm with their DX sensor.

For wildlife or sport etc the DX is good, where it might not be so good is if you use a wide angle lens for landscapes your wide lens will not be as wide with DX.

The Nikon14-24 lens in this video ends up a 21-36

[SecretMisery]

Whhhyy are the lenses soo expensive.. There's so many lenses I would like! But darn, their like $1000 - $3000 :P

[jun19fan40]

Which camera will you be using to shoot real estate... $ does not matter, get 14-24 mm and get the 10.5mm or 14mm fisheye, depending on whether you use DX or FX

I would get the D700 or D700x when it comes out.

[ashtoncoleman]

Thanks man! I went ahead with the 14-24 mm f/2.8 and LOVE it. Bad to the bone and vivid.... I'm still with trusted D90 for real estate videos. This fisheye is exactly what I've been ready to buy next so heading to Amazon now!

looking at the new 70-300 II which must rock but at a price tag of $2,400, I'll wait.

[ashtoncoleman]

I shoot luxury real estate (typically well lit) here in Miami and looking at the 14-24mm 2.8 OR the 10-24mm and can't decide... I want vivacious (sharp) pro shots and price isn't an issue... Any final suggestions? Currently using the 12-24mm and love it!

[nosaeRfOecioV]

If you don't need filters, there no comparison. The 14-24mm is better than most primes in the same range. There is no equal, and this is not an exaggeration.

[bluemystic7501]

How does the 14-24 look on your DX?

[lorikzzz]

it's 21-31 on a DX

[bluemystic7502]

@lorikzzz

That's not what I was asking. I bought the 14-24mm and use it on my D90. It BLOWS the 12-24mm DX lens away. No comparison.

[lorikzzz]

i'm going to get it too but it's really expensive though

[bluemystic7502]

If you can swing it, get it. It's an outstanding lens.

[StarskySTARS]

This is very helpfull! thanks! now i know what my next buy is :]

Also do you have any recommendations on any good Macro lenses?

[halo212345678]

i want to get a great lens for a nikon for taking pics of birds and wildlife. wat do u think i should get no price range except for the ones that cost like 22,000 lol

[QQQQcon]

The nikon 70-300mm VR lens is good.

[nosaeRfOecioV]

For birds and wildlife you need a tele.

The 200-400mm is a popular choice, but it's f/4. The enxt step up for birds would be a 300mm f/2.8 and teleconverter, followed by the more expensive 400mm f/2.8, 500mm f/4 and 600mm f/4. The latter three requiring a tripod for best results.

For a less expensive consumer-grade lens, the 70-300mm is popular. the 80-400mm needs to be improved, but works.

[pedalman]

The 200- 400 I found I never used the 200mm end, instead I got a used 400VR f2.8 and a 1.7x and 2.0x converters.

I get 400mm2.8 - 650mmf4.5 - 800mm f5.6 with full auto focus. Im thinking of getting a DX D300 that will give me 600mm 1020mm 1200mm awesome !

I do miss some shots if I need to change converters but Im developing a skill of quick changes and putting the correct one on for the situation .

I also get some shots with this set up that I missed with the zoom, no need to zoom.

[beverchakus1]

FX users can use the 10-24mm. they just wont get the full frame advantage. it would be dumb, but you can use it.
