LENSES Nikon Sigma The 70-200/f2.8 AF-S VR IF-ED, to give its full title, is the latest in a long line of advanced fast professional telephoto zooms from Nikon. It replaces, and is smaller than, the 80- 200 IF-ED, and adds Vibration Reduction.

The image circle of a DX lens is designed to cover just the sensor (so it won’t work with film cameras). The 10.5mm/f2.8 is a 180º fisheye, and it’s joined by a compact 17–55/f2.8 zoom. 12 Speed Graphic Zoom 12-24/f4 AFS-G DX IF ED ..............785.00 17-35/f2.8 AFS-D IF ..................1225.00 17-55/f2.8 AF-G IF-ED ...............1029.95 18-35/f3.5-4.5 AF-D IF ED ............387.95 24-50/f3.3-4.5 AF-D ...................338.20 24-85/f2.8-4 AF-D......................465.00 24-85/f3.5-4.5 AFS-G .................338.00 24-120/f3.5-5.6 AF-G VR IF ED .....449.70 28-70/f2.8 AFS-D IF ..................1225.00 28-100/f3.5-5.6 AF-G .................158.95 28-105/f3.5-4.5 AF.....................312.90 28-200/f3.5-5.6 AF-G IF ED..........255.00 35-70/f2.8 AF-D.........................507.00 70-200/f2.8 AF-S VR IF ED .........1288.00 70-300/f4.5-5.6 AF-D ED .............279.95 70-300/f4-5.6 AF-G ....................159.95 80-200/f2.8 AF-D ED...................845.00 80-400/f4.5-5.6 AF-D VR............1073.90 Special purpose 60/f2.8 AF-D Micro .....................372.00 105/f2.8 AF-D Micro ...................659.60 200/f4 AF-D Micro ....................1099.00 70-180/f4.5-5.6 AF-D Mic ............845.00 TC14E/2 AFS converter ................338.00 TC20E/2 AFS converter ................279.95 Every lens manfacturer has two or three different quality levels in its range – that’s why there’s a £1000 difference between the ‘amateur’ and ‘professional’ standard zoom. Mind you, stopped down to f11 the difference is often tricky to spot, but in the middle there are frequently lenses delivering excellent performance and the 70- 300/f4-5.6 APO Macro Super is one such. ‘Apo’ means apochromatic, which means the lens corrects the tendency of colours to focus at different points, especially apparent in a long focus lens, resulting in colour fringing and loss of perceived sharpness. Three low dispersion glass elements do the job here, and currently the lens is coming with a FREE achromatic AML close-up lens.

Converters Teleconverters and autofocusing Customers are sometimes perplexed to find that their converter won’t autofocus with a particular lens. The reason is an optical one: they lose light - 1 stop for the 1.4x, and 2 stops for the 2x. Camera manufacturers design their autofocus sensors to work with lenses of f8 or faster, and so when a 2x converter is attached to a 70-300mm zoom with an aperture range of f4-5.6, this becomes f8-f11, and at the 300mm end, autofocusing stops. It’s only really a problem however, if you’re photographing moving subjects. Kenko 7-element 2x autofocus converters Double the power of your lens. Fitting between the lens and the body, they retain all metering functions, and are ideally suited to focal lengths above 50mm. The 7-element design and multicoating keep performance loss to a minimum. Please note the restrictions regarding autofocusing in the panel above. £88.95 KE2X7C Kenko 2x MC-7E Canon AF KE2X7M Kenko 2x MC-7E Minolta AF KE2X7N Kenko 2x MC-7E Nikon AF KE2X7P Kenko 2x MC-7E Pentax AF Voigtländer Manual focus lenses Traditionally-made metal and glass lenses of a very high optical and mechanical standard, featuring fast maximum apertures, bayonet fit metal lenshoods (extra), and available in these fittings: Canon FD, Minolta MD, Olympus OM, Nikon AIS (with F prong), Pentax PK/AB, Contax and M42 screw.

This year they are joined by a 17–35/f2.8-4 and soon a 70–200/f2.8. All these lenses have a ‘Di’ suffix. They still cover a 35mm negative, but the light exit path has been optimised to minimise colour aberrations on digital cameras.
