What do you think of this? (Nikon D50)
Nikon D50 (house)
Nikon AF-S 18-70 Nikon AF 50/1,8D Sigma AF 70-300/4-5,6 (APO) SanDisk Ultra II Plus SD 2GB Hoya Pol cirk 67mm HMC Super Hama Stepring 58-67mm Hoya UV 67mm HMC Super What should i replace/take away/add? This is suppose to be my first DSLR, is it a good choise with these lenses? Best regards, 996GT2 |
Is the Sigma lense stabilized? I won't repeat as always that Sigma quality isn't up to Nikon or Canon standards, but at least when you buy a 300 mm, you need it to be stabilized.
Apart from that, we know the D50 is a good entry level SLR, so nothing against it ;) |
D50 is the best entry-level dSLR IMHO, Sigma 70-300 APO is the best entry-level telelens.
Don't listen to TT, I can handle 400mm handhold just fine. ;) You'll just need some more light and/or higher ISO. Sure, an IS-lens will help a lot, but you can't beat the price of the Sigma. |
400 mm and a polarizer, no way dude :D

Thanks for your great answers, but i now i`ll only use 200mm, not up to 300mm..
I have looked at the 350D + Canon EF 70-300 IS USM also...doesn`t know wich is the best buy... |
The Canon for sure is a better buy (as soon as they come out with a fix for the portait-orientation-problem), but it'll cost you a lot more.

IMO, the Nikkor AF 50 - 1.8D would be good for portaits and low light stuff - indoor shooting, car pictures, etc. It is also very light and will be a decent lens to travel with. The only de-merit is that it has a slow autofocus. The Nikkor AF-S 18-70 is a great lens with decent wide angle and reasonable zoom. Compared to the AF50, this has a fast autofocus and would be an excellent lens when shooting outdoors in bright light. The Sigma 70-300 has decent range but is relatively slow lens. I think it will do pretty well unless you are trying to take it to a racetrack. This is possibly the "weakest link" in the package and there are better lenses depending on what you would use the zoom for... |

You might also want to look into the D50 two lenses package that has the 18-55 and 70-300 for around $800. |
