Screen Size for Photo Editing Why?
I use an HP 27" monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080. Photos look sharp to me.

I guess I could invest in a 27" 2560 x 1440 monitor but see no reason to as what I
have now is fine.

Computer Monitor for Photo Editing
I am currently using an HP 27" monitor 1920x1080 60hz. Works fine so far as I am concerned.
Local photo club is of the opinion I need a monitor which can display 27" 2560x1440 144hz monitor.

I thought my photo looked good on my current monitor. Can someone who uses the higher resolution
monitor chime in and tell me is it going to be better for photo editing? I would hate to drop $500 and be
disappointed.

I use my computer for photo editing and general use. I am NOT a gamer and will never be.


Thanks

Tamron 100-400 4.5-6.3 Di VC UDM
This new lens surpassed all my expectations. VC most certainly works and make a difference.

The attached photo was at 400mm taken hand held of an aircraft which to the naked eye looked like a white spec.

It says it has Vibration Compensation but I don't see it. If I had it all to do over again I'd pass on this lens. Canon 7d Mark II.


Maybe you have a defective lens as the VC on my Tamron 100-400 most certainly works and makes a difference.

I owned the G VRII version before buying the FL version. There is nothing wrong with the VRII G version, it is very sharp, and the price is not bad considering he has only used it 5 times.
I would just add to make sure it is a USA lens in case, down the road, you should need service. (the box would be nice too)
A quick look at ebay show's they are selling around $700to $1300.00 range depending on condition.

Serial number starts with US, this was the first thing I checked.
Want nothing to do with Grey Market items. Not worth the headache.

Thanks for your input sir, greatly appreciated!

Nikon Lens Decision

I had used an older 80-200 F2.8 AF-S for a long time, and knowing that the focus drive was problematic and the lens had reached its end of life (no more support), I just babied it - when it finally broke, I got an older 80-200 AF-D which was enough for me given the amount of use I got out of the older one. The AF-S was a great lens, very sharp across the field, but was somewhat subject to flare in backlit/sidelit conditions.

I resisted buying the VR and the G VR II because I did not see either as a step up from the AF-S. And the focus breathing on the G VR II was terrible, dropping down to a field of view of 120mm lens at minimum focusing distance when zoomed to 200mm. So I passed on it. Then the game changer E-FL came out and I jumped on it. I got a good copy, (they did have some early sample variations), and couldn't be happier. The G II has excellent center sharpness, but the corners and edges do not match the center performance. The E-FL is good at all apertures and across the field, beating out the G II all the way around. If you can justify the cost, it is well worth it. Oh, and the focus breathing is not an issue.

Thank you for the honest assessment! Would love to have the E-FL but $2300+ is out of my price range.

Nikon Lens Decision
The new Nikon 70-200 2.8E FL lens is now out and the current rage but at $2595. As such, the Nikon 70-200 2.8F II dropped to just under $1200. I have the chance to pickup the Nikon 70-200 2.8G II for $899 and price is firm. Lens is used however is in mint condition and seller says he has not used it more than 5 times. He prefers his older version as it is not as heavy. I have tried out the lens. Focus is fast and VR works as it should. No hiccups or strange noises. Lens is clean, clear, scratch free and no signs of fungus. Lens appears to functions as is should. I guess my question is can anyone who has had experience with the Nikon 70-200G II tell me their thoughts on this lens and tell me is it worth buying? Is this a good price or should I spend the extra $300 for a new lens?

Thanks
