Hi all, have a friend's wedding coming up in some months. As I shoot landscapes for my hobby I prefer shooting non zooms (primes) and can get the older stuff also. So I don't have a Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8. The stores seem to be asking $95 for it in Wellington and I have to arrange insurance cover. Auckland one store seems to provide insurance but the excess is $800.
I may need a hire for 2 days, the church ceremoney, not pro work, just a friend's wedding and the second day at the botanical garden probably for the few people.
I imagine the 24 or 48hr insurance won't be cheap either.
At these crazy rates would be better to just get the lens even thou I may not use it much in the short term? It is a lens maybe when I am tagged by people so I can use the zoom, when alone I tend to go slow and just swap my prime lenses etc.
Thanks.
