Dunno leh, just find my 24-70 f2.8g is quite heavy and not much using at all and all the time I will bring my 50mm f1.8g is more better performance.

Some here is using my 24-70 @ f2.8 and ISO 800.

I vote for 24-70mm . Sharp at all range. Reviews on net for both lens for more info.

 

[crazypaladin]

I second that. The 24-70 is very sharp!

you mean you are using 50mm cover 24-70mm range? This is something i thought before: Thinking skip 24-70mm range and let 16-35mm, 85mm and 70-200mm cover all range. would that be a good idea?

Took some night photos with my D800. All taken with 24-70mm lens. Unfortunately, I missed the magical "blue" hour.

2nd and 3rd pictures are stunning. All are extremely sharp.

Where did you stand to shoot the 3rd one?

 

[cwaikong]

It was taken from one of the guest rooms at The Fullerton Hotel.
