Nikon 1870 vs 175528 vs 1735 vs 1224 on D70 and maby D2x

correction: the left one seems to be always the widest angle of view of the zoom and the right graphic the "tele" setting.

I do not find any indication at which aperture this was measured...
 
Another very useful and good lens is the Tamron 24-135mm 3.5-5.6. I bought one recently for use on my Fuji S3, and the results are so good that I don' t feel the need to upgrade within that range, except with some fast primes fo r low light.

It doesn't have VR of course, but VR has its limitations as well, like moving objects, and the build quality is very good. Where I live (in Thailand) the price is about half of the Nikkor 24-120, but that may not be the case everywhere.

Together with one of the (many) good wide zooms available, it makes a good travel kit. Since it's full frame and has an aperture ring, it can be used on a film camera as well, even on an FM3A.
