- but not for the hamburgers!
I've just resigned my campaign for slower DX/36x24 lenses, and ordered a Nikkor 55-200 VR². Yes, it will shoot at 10½ Mpixels on the Z6, which sucks. It will be an 80-300 mm/effective focal length.. which is what I'd like to find in a compact FX lens. If only I could shoot this at 1:1 or 5:4 with the entire sensor height.. but apparently Nikon frowns on such creativity.What counters the suck?
- it has VR². VR just showed me its value on the 24-85G lens with the Z6. And this VR is one better :)
- it cost $75. Not $250 (50-250 Z version), nor $475 (Tam rxd 70-300), nor >$700.
- it weighs 425 grams - with the FTZ adapter! Less than every mid-long telephoto I've looked into, even the bargain Sigma 70-300apo (630g) that I've been trying this week.
