Forums > Back > A bunch of Nikkor legacy primes - what to keep (to use with Sony APS-C), what to sell?
#3
I would take another approach, since  I wouldn't put lens sharpness as my first criterion, but the actual photography needs.

And I would say what would this lens give me that I don't have with others ?

let's start:

24mm f2.8, you already have 24mm f4 is this f stop very important ? if yes keep it otherwise it should go unless you have other cosniderations like weight and size.

35mm f1.8: same here but it's 2+ f stop so worth considering.

50mm f1.8, 85mm f1.8: those lenses are interesting for portraits, if you don't do portraits you can sell them otherwise they are a must to keep.

180mm f2.8 if you are using full frame and you do portraits, you can keep it although a little long, otherwise you can sell it.

Another question is how much $$$ will selling them get you ? personally I wouldn't sell a lens for 50-100$ unless it is dust collecting and I never use it, so is there any point selling 50mm f1.8 ?
