Allow me to introduce to you

My new Nikon 28-70 2.8 aka THE BEAST



Sample shots from this lens coming soon :giggle:

 

Nice Mike! Looking forward to the "sample shots" if they're anything like the other photo.

 

Oh I'm going to the OC Fair today, I'm sure I'll be able to crank out decent pictures

 

is it on full frame or apc-s?

 

Cant wait to see some sample photos

 

Nice man. How much are these new or used? This is definitely something I will get soon.

 

Crop, I have a D7000, still waiting for D700 successor.
Which is why I bought the beast instead of 17-55 2.8, I'm going full frame in the near future.

 

Nikon discontinued these in 2007, they now make the 24-70 2.8.
Used price should be between 950-1000 shipped, I bought mine for 965 shipped with original box, soft case, front and rear cap + lens hood.

 

Shots from today was meh, I'm not used to this lens yet, need to shoot it more often, lol.

But here are the samples I promised,

Very nice pics Mike. Keep em coming.

 

Such a sharp lens. Great pics Mike

 

Thanks!
Yeah @ 2.8 it is pretty sharp, but it's nothing like stopping down to f4 and up though, lol

 

Thanks guys!
