            How you like that 16-35L Cris? I doubt I'm even considering thinking of getting one, but I see a lot of people have one.

            It came 🙂

                  Love my 16-35, wanted a 17-40 first, but wanted a WA that can shoot in low light for indoor shots.

                    beside my fixed lens (35mm 1,8) i'm getting of getting a zoom lens again.
                    just owning the kid-version 18-55mm on my Nikon D5000…anything you would suggest (others feel free to answer as well!)...

                    and besides that i'm thinking of upgrading to a D7000 at the end of the year 🙂

                      well, you have the 16-35/4 which is very good, but somewhat slow. Nice for when you have light.
                      You have the 14-24/2.8 which is huge, expensive and (competing with the 21/2.8 distagon) the best piece of wide angle glass you'll ever get, but somewhat impractical and too expensive for a crop body really.

                      I loved my 18-50/2.8 sigma when I had a crop body.

                      Seize the day and don't you cry.

                        It's such an awesome camera  😘 Too bad when the 5D MK III comes out I'm going to sell this one to get it (which was my intention in the first place).

                        Cris.

                        Word, the 16-35 is a faster lens so it is better for indoors. Plus I'm sure it is a better lens all together. Would love that lens actually, maybe if I shoot concerts (which would be a dream).

                        Go for the zoom! IMO from what I hear (and I have used it too) a 70-200 is your best bet. It really equates to being something like 130-300 or something like that on a crop, but if and once you go FF it is a pretty short focal length (shorter than your 50 on a crop). I don't know about Nikon though, but IMO go consider a 24-70 as that is one of the most versatile focal lengths and if you do the 70-200 would compliment it nicely. All you would need then is a fisheye, extremely wide angle lens and a TS lens 😉

                        As for the body I can't comment cause I only know of canon bodies 😃

                            Seems like I may need to stock up on Portra and Tri-X – Kodak may not last another year.

                                      thanks Rafa! Well with the exception of the last one it was the 50 1.2. Now I have the 24 1.4 and my god the lens is quite good! I love the bokeh on it. Here's another shot this one's of me though.

                                        so now it's "only" the 24 1.4 you own?
                                        how many inches/ centimetres were you away from the mirror btw.?

                                        since the D5000 was a gift from my gf, i actually CAN'T sell it (she'd be pissed and kick my ass!) so now i have to see that i can cop the D7000 just like that by selling all the equipment i've copped for the D5000 and so on…
                                        mission impossible i'd say ;)…

                                          yup, if all goes to plan thought I'm saving up for an 85 1.2, and a 50 1.4 and then sell off the 7D and get the 5D mark III when it comes out. This isn't set in stone though I would hope that i can at least get the 85 1.2 IF anything.

                                          But its always good to have a spare camera 😉 it'll take a little longer but I'm sure its worth it. BTW my photography teacher has a d7000 and its a pretty sweet camera. I personally would keep the equipment though but I'm glad I chose Canon just because they have the better lenses 😉

                                            well if i'll get the D7000 i won't need the equipment from the D5000 anymore.
                                            since the D7000 is a bit heavier as the D5000 i also would need a new tripod and all the stuff i own atm…just for the D7000...going to be another hussle 🙂
