I have recommended the newish Nikon 70-300 f3.5-5.6 AFS G lens for travel use.
DxO have been testing various lenses on the D800 to find the best of the best.

The Nikon 70-300 comes out as the best telephoto.


I've added one to my bag for my holiday. The Fuji xe1 covers the wide to standard range, the 70-300 with the D7000 gives a lightweight pairing.

It also is good for IR...although a bit long on the DX body for scenics.
