Nikon or Canon and then which camera?
#63
[quote name='Vieux loup' timestamp='1282671438' post='2113']

Coming back from La-la land, how do I know which Nikon lenses are high quality when I look at their list? Is there some sense in all their letters or do I just have to look and judge by the prices?

You can't tell from their list as such, though the price is somewhat of an indicator. You can (very) generally expect fixed-aperture zooms to be of higher quality than equivalent variable-aperture ones, shorter zoom ranges to be higher quality than longer zoom ranges, and larger aperture lenses to be higher quality than equivalent smaller aperture ones. You can read the reviews (for the appropriate lenses) here and the user comments on slrgear.com to get an impression of them. Same goes for Canon lenses: even though the L marking supposedly indicates the highest quality, it doesn't always indicate the best bang for the buck.
