FS: 2 Nikon Lenses
Selling these 2 lenses
First up:
18-70 AF-S F3.5-4.5 $200 ($220 with the circ polarizer) This is a great lens, metal mount and solid built and F4.5 on the long end unlike the kit lens which is F5.6 at 55mm, It also has a dust and water resistant ring on the mount which is unusual for this class of lens. I just find myself using this range less and less, and either opt for the 10-20 or the 50. Lens sells for $350 new
Second:
50mm F1.8 AF $100 "the nifty fifty" One of the best and sharpest nikon lenses you can get and its dirt cheap. Sells new for $135. Only reason I am selling this is because I want the 50mm 1.4g.
Both are mint, no scratches or marks and include front and rear lens caps, and the 18-70 includes the lens hood

Why ya selling both? to get just the 1.4?
Honestly, for .4 worth, its nice, but not THAT big of a difference. You going to really do that much low light shooting?

the 1.8 has 7 blades aswell^
I just like being forced to be more creative with the one focal length, And if thats going to replace 2 lenses, I want it to be a great lens.
I just never use the 18-70
If im shooting cars its either the 10-20, 50, or the 80-200.
The new AF-S 50mm 1.4g is just amazing, so ill probably pick that up. Fast primes are where it's at. Who knows I might just sell this and save up for some FF action

I'm in limbo with my camera stuff. Like I want to say I'm content with it, but I'm wanting to waste money on my car again, I love cars and doing stuff to them, so I'm gonna play with that for a while and maybe switch up the one lens. lol
