The Nikon D7000 + Nikon 24-70 F2.8 Good Matching . I am looking for the new Nikon D800 (will be) instead of Nikon D700 ( I love the Nikon D700 but it is too old and can not find It in my country)

Give me your advice go with the 24-70 F2.8 or prime lens ( I shoot wedding )

Thank you for your time

@Remoporsche Sorry for the late reply. Now the D800 is out, you can make a better decision on it since the specs are out to compare to a D700. Id always say get the upgraded gear. In this situation, I thought Id be selling my D700s but it looks like Ill be keeping them only because it will now be discontinued and the ability to shoot great in low light will only be available if you have a D4, D3s, D700.  For lenses, Id suggest zooms for the ceremony to avoid be obtrusive. Hope this helps

I thought you used a tamron as your back up to the 24-70?

@SaDScO I switched to the Nikon 24-85 f2.4 - 4.0. It has the Macro switch so I can use it as a back up macro as well.

@dukoduli Tamron is sharper but the 24-85 is more versatile. It acts like a macro as well with the macro switch. The Tamron is a little better in my opinion.

@DMGFotos

hi Darren, since you own both which do you prefer more the tamron 29-75mm or the nikon 24-85mm..thank for the great vid.

@badmintonfool Depends what you are shooting and what body. 24-70 great for indoors. 70-200 VR great for outdoors and portraits. This of course is speaking on FX terms. DX, the 70-200mm may be a little long.

@prmass1 If your shooting 150-200mm most of the time, Id highly recommend going with the 70-200 VR instead. For me, I find it hard holding a 135mm still without VR therefore making a lot of shots unusable.  Hope this helps.

Hi. I want to be your friend :) you give great suggestions :) keep it up my man!

Great info! I have a question- is the two ring 80-200mm 2.8 sharp wide open? One time I have the push and pull version but it was soft from 150-200mm making it useless for my work. Thanks!
