D750

I'm thinking of using a D750 as a backup wedding camera and am wondering if anybody can recommend some of the best value portrait and lower end zooms for it? Thanks

Sigma 35mm f/1.4, better than the Nikon version, and less than half the price.

Thanks. I have also been looking at the nifty fifty f1.8 G

Take a look at the Tamron 24-70mm.

The Nikon 85mm f1.8G is an absolute stonker of a portrait lens, should be able to pick one up for around £300.

Brilliant. Thanks for the suggestions.

I forgot to add I was thinking of purchasing a V860 II (N) for it unless anybody can add a cheaper/better alternative? I have two of these already but there are for Fuji. Thanks.

Or just buy the Godox (Nikon) trigger, it will fire your two V860II (F)'s. Unless of course you actually need/want a flash mounted on your camera's hotshoe.

Good idea for the trigger if I want to use all of the flashes for future use. Thank you but unfortunately I have an event coming up in two weeks that will require a hot shoe mounted flash. Probably be wise to buy the trigger and the flash.

Edit: I'm wondering if the Nikon Ving contains a trigger?

All that matters is that the "master" on your camera's hotshoe matches your camera's make. e.g. The master could be a Xpro(N), X1T(N) or a V860II(N). The master will control the other flashes no matter if they are Canon, Fuji, Sony etc. The same master can also be used to trigger AD200's, AD600's etc.

Yeah I need the Nikon then as the other two are specifically Fuji. Thanks.
