And, even if it is not so, the correct way of holding a camera for maximum stability involves holding the lens and resting the body (if possible) on your palm. – ysap. Mar 31, 2011 at 11:15. The Nikon 14-24 f/2.8 and 24-70 f2/8 come to mind as a rather short lens (13cm, 5") that weigh about a kilo.

6. Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8. One of my favorite wide angle lenses I’ve used is the Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8. It’s a heavy lens, but it matches or even exceeds the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 in image quality overall – plus adds some modern features like vibration reduction and a water-repellant front element.
