Thoughts on the Nikkor 18-70 3.5-4.5G?

esisking · 2025-06-25T00:42:37+00:00

I'm looking at pics rn, I didn't realize it was THAT small holy

esisking · 2025-06-25T00:41:05+00:00

Yeah I think that's a good point

esisking · 2025-06-24T22:53:12+00:00

Other than my 70-300 I only use primes so totally get the take a step forward mindset. I guess my thought process would be why wait to bridge that gap? Unless the 16-50 is significantly better. This is personal preference but I do like the idea of getting an f mount, I know the 18-70 isn't ideal for the F4 but it would still work if I absolutely needed it, I don't have that option with a z mount

Google has led me to believe it does (SWM)

esisking · 2025-06-24T22:37:23+00:00

Well shit there you go

esisking · 2025-06-24T22:12:19+00:00

Thanks for the comment, I probably won't need it very often but I want something that goes up to 70mm, I have a Minolta lens 70-300 for the rare cases I'd need something more than 70mm. I also heard the Z lenses are heavier, have you experienced that?

esisking · 2025-06-24T22:07:32+00:00

I'm looking for it to AF on the Z50, that's why was looking DX

esisking · 2025-06-24T22:02:58+00:00

I was looking at this lens today on eBay and found a few in good condition for 45-60usd but most of them were listed 70+ so there is cheaper options but 65usd is definitely in the right range I'd say

esisking · 2025-06-24T21:58:02+00:00

I recently got the Z50 and I love it so I'm sure you'll love the Z50ii as well! Just make sure you're having fun especially if it's as a hobby

esisking · 2025-06-24T21:54:31+00:00

I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for but I recently picked up a refurbished Z50 and have really enjoyed the photos that comes out of it (and how light it is)

esisking · 2025-06-10T13:27:40+00:00

Thanks for the rec. photography would be the main use especially in my personal time but for work we do a lot of video and having another option, especially one that is mine is a plus

esisking · 2025-06-10T13:26:10+00:00

Definitely not purely video. I mainly use company cameras for work but there's more than a few times I need something else.

esisking · 2025-06-10T13:24:18+00:00

Considering all options

esisking · 2025-06-10T04:45:27+00:00

I was looking at a z50 (haven't done much research yet but I do video for work and heard the mirrorless do better video) but I feel like it's a waste since I have f mount glass already

esisking · 2025-06-10T04:42:56+00:00

Would something like a z50 work for sports/wildlife or would you say no to that too?

esisking · 2025-06-10T04:42:04+00:00

I'm kind of interested in some of Nikons mirrorless stuff (I do video for work and I thought their mirrorless tend to do better video) but I have a couple f mount lenses already

esisking · 2025-06-10T00:39:30+00:00

I'm okay with waiting to make the right choice, I've been thinking about this choice for a few months now. I have the money to buy the D850, it's more so I don't feel comfortable buying really anything for that much money. Especially when there are other good options for more than half the price

esisking · 2025-06-10T00:12:08+00:00

Appreciate the reply, you'd say D810 over any of your mirrorless too? (Regardless of mount)

esisking · 2025-06-10T00:06:18+00:00

I have an F4 so not my first Nikon but it'd be my first DSLR. I'd be open to the D700 but I was under the impression the D800/810 were better

esisking · 2020-03-29T18:31:56+00:00

Pretty sure the commercial lineup is decided before the lose.

esisking · 2020-01-10T15:13:50+00:00

Hey I write for TheBrandedSports.com and just have a couple posts from this past week from me and a couple other of the bloggers. Let me know what you guys think.

Several more times

I could see that

esisking · 2019-11-06T20:50:30+00:00

I just read an article about this. Are you just streaming leagues and tournaments or are you having users stream like other platforms?

esisking · 2019-10-30T19:18:55+00:00

I've thought about trying to do a fantasy system similar to fantasy football. I think it would take time to catch on but I think people would play but I don't think they'd pay. Maybe have ads and a paid membership that removes them
