Nikon Lens reviews

[SwissJon]

Having just jumped ship with Sony, I'm finding I'm all at sea with the plethora of Nikon mount lenses, both new and second hand.

There is a website, Dyxxum.com that caters for Alpha mount lenses, it holds some good, fairly independant, user reviews, and I was fairly sure that I had invested in the best glass I could afford.. Now I have no idea with the Nikon mounts.

Is there anywhere I can look that will give me a similar quality of information in one place, or is Google the main resource for information like that?

Ken Rockwell's site has a ton of info and lens reviews for Nikon, and Photo.net as well. Might be a good place to start.

That's where I get most of my "Old obscure lenses" info.

I like Bjorn Rorslett's site for narrative reviews.

Photozone.de is another good resource.

Nikoncafe.com lens lust section has hundreds of user reviews and sample images.

User reviews, I'd go to Fred Miranda (current lenses only, though)
FM Reviews -

Thom Hogan before Ken Rockwell, for my tastes. (Rockwell's an eccentric.)
Nikon Digital Camera and Photography Articles by Thom Hogan

And nikonians.org and Ken Rockwell have good charts on body/lens compatibility.

Rockwell's also got a good walkthrough of the F-mount's history of evolution:

This photosynthesis site has quite a bit of detailed technical and specification-type information.

I used it quite a bit when my father in law gave me some older Nikon lenses. The site helped me figure our just what those lenses actually were.

No reviews on there, though.

Here is another good one. I check it regularly.
