Good night guys

18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens

Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR [Vibration Reduction] Nikkor Zoom Lens

AF-S DX NIKKOR

55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR

Tkanks

hi

I advise you Nikon for aviation photography in the entry level DSLRs, the D3200 ils good but the D5300 is, of course, better. I had the 55-200 and I was disappointed so buy a 55-300 or a Sigma 70-300.

When I started planespotting with a DSLR camera I had a Sigma 70-300 and made extremely bad experiences with it. Can't recommend it.

I'm currently using the D5300 with the kit 18-140 lens, pretty satisfied with the combo.

I currently own a D3200 with 55-300 nikkor lens. it's very good in my opinion. I've added some shot I took with it.

What I would do is rent them if you can. If you can not then go to the store that sells them and handle them. Which is more comfortable and easy to use without a tripod. Get comfortable with them.

That's like asking "Boeing or Airbus" or "Play Station or X-Box", there is no right opinion. I own a Nikon D7000 and I'm very happy with it, it's the perfect DSLR for beginners who want to get professionals, I decided for a Nikon camera because I once had a Canon camcorder and I hated it.
