Ok camera buffs

what does this mean for me?

Zeiss will be making fmount lenses for the nikon SLR's


are the zeiss lenses that much better than nikkor? And if so, what things make them better?

all the forums are going crazy about it, but I have not figured out why

that bad huh?

I'll stick with my nikon lenses for now

I need a good zoom with vib reduction for outdoor stuff, and a wide/superwide for general use

prolly gonna get sigma lenses they seem to get good reviews and are cheaper, not sure if they have that vibration reduction stuff though

I doubt this will make much difference to anyone. I also don't understand all the hype on the photo boards. High priced Zeiss lenses are not going to help me by driving the price of the high priced Nikon lenses down.

I own a D2X and D70. The D2X really needs high quality glass, but I already have that with my Nikkors!

Zeiss lenses aren't only for expensive cameras. I have one on my old Sony Cybershot. They are excellent lenses, though I'm in position to comment on their relative merit compared to the Nikons.
