![]() Good luck with your decision and I hope this helps in some way. It’s a beast, but the extra 30mm combined with the 24mp D7100 sensor would give even more reach when needed. No time to change lenses in that situation.Īnother lens to consider is the Sigma 180 f2.8 OS macro. In addition, many times when I am sitting down shooting close-ups outdoors, hummingbirds often come within range of the Sigma 150. Many of the really small florals will surprise you with their "hidden" beauty. At one time I was going to upgrade, but I decided to keep my excellent copy of the non-OS version. Based on feedback from others on these dpr forums, the OS version has slightly faster AF, has an easier-to-clean finish and of course adds the image stabilization. The bokeh is superb and it is a very sharp lens. I use it more often as a medium tele than as a macro. It is the lens by which I judge all my other lenses. So, I would suggest the Sigma 150 f2.8 OS macro. When you are outdoors shooting florals, it's hard to believe that you wouldn't want to shoot those awesome butterflies that frequent the blossoms. However, you pretty much have that focal length range covered.Ĭonsider this… I shoot a lot of outdoor florals, butterflies and other nectaring insects. ![]() I've used the larger Nikon 105 f2.8 VR and I also liked that. Nice little, lightweight lens - very sharp - excellent bokeh. I have the non-VC Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro. Well, with florals (especially the big ones like sunflowers, stargazer lilies, a macro around 60mm to 105mm would be ideal. The Nikkor AF-S 40mm f2.8 DX micro is another macro lens with great smooth bokeh. But I would also check out the Tamron 60mm, as it renders so nicely. The Tamron 60mm f2 Di II macro has quite a bit smoother bokeh than the 60mm f2.8 AF-S from Nikon. There are two "current" versions, the old one without USD and VC (slow to focus, nice bokeh), and the new one (a bit more "harsh" bokeh). Telephoto zoom: Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor Zoom Lens For Nikon Digital SLR Cameras :absolute must-have, the second lens to buy for a D7100. I saw some amazing photos from it before and im hoping it would make nice portrait lens maybe too.Īlso had tamron 90mm in mind but not so sure about this Wide-angle zoom: Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X116 Pro DX II Digital Zoom Lens (AF-S Motor) (for Ni :spectacular wide angle, high brightness and good image quality. ![]() ![]() I got d7100 and my favorite lenses now are 18-35 sigma and sometimes i use 85 1.5 G it had front /back focus issues ,slow af and bokeh when using it as standard tele lens was very harsh. I used to have 105 VR very briefly long time ago on D300 but returned it. ![]()
