i have the following lens :
Rokinon 8mm Full frame Fisheye
Tokina 12-24mm f/4 AT-X AF PRO DX 11 (77)
Nikon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S DX (67) - "kit lens"
Tokina 100/2.8 ATX Digital Ready 1:1 AF-D Macro (55)
Nikon AF-S VR Zoom-70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED (67)
i am thinking of making two changes - (1) adding the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX (2) changing the 18-135 for a sharper lens - if you agree which lens would you suggest
what is your thinking - thanks mr toad

Seems like you need a good 24-70 --- like the Tamron 2.8 VR or the Nikon if you have that kind of money ?.......

First decide waht focal length you need the stoned as much as you can on the lens. Quality glass makes a huge difference in your results Nikons16-35mm or 24-70mm are superb. 70-200mm VR another great lens.

18-200 Nikon or 18-300 nikon if you are comfortable with the price. (Then you can let go the 70-300 also) Many say the 18-300 is the only zoom needed for a nikon dx camera.
