Can this be use with a Nikon D3200 ? I'm looking for good lenses for large group portraits indoors (perhaps outdoors)

If the d3200 has a drive screw. the Sigma 24-70 is a great lens, but has no own motor drive. Check your camera manual or a camera review if the 3200 does....

The Sigma 24-70 will work with full frame and crop frame cameras. You have to buy the Nikon mount version. I found the lens soft wide open. A better lens for about the same money is the sigma 17-70 OS. Sharper wide open, and the anti shake works helps in low light. My 24-70 was not sharp until 5.6, the newer sigma HSM is much better but spendy

For landscape and weddings you generally want a wider angle lens than this especially if you're shooting indoors. For kids and pets in an outdoor setting as well as portraits, this lens will work well.

No, this is only for the Nikon 1 System, the lens will never work on the D3200.

You can get one that is compatible with your Nikon, but I wouldnt. The quality just isnt there, for me anyway. I have found Sigma lenses to have much better quality and to last well. All my lenses at this point are Sigma, for all my cameras.

Yes, it should work fine so long as you buy the proper version (Nikon mount). It is a manual lens, so you'll need to do all of your adjustments yourself, the camera won't do anything for you. Also, focus with one of these is quite different than you might be used to, so read the instructions and do some research.

Parties or anything with people because a lot of people will fit in the image since it is a wide lens. I also like using this indoors or where I am pretty close to the subject. If you don't need the portability I would suggest the regular kit zoom since the autofocus makes it equally good in dark lighting.

I have never utilized the lens on the D3200 but I have on the D40, and the D600 Nikon if those connections are compatible with the D3200 you are good. Remember this is not an auto focus lens. Good shooting.

This a wide angle prime lens. Autofocus won't work on the d3200, but it will take photos with the Nikon d3200. Just have to manually focus...

Yes because the objective lens is quite wide (allowing for more light to enter - thus good for indoor use), but the piece is somewhat bulky and has some weight to it. If that's not an issue then yes, it would function well indoors where light is an issue.

If you're doing an indoor wedding, something like an 18-200 or 28-135 might serve you better. This lens would be good for outdoor weddings probably, especially if you're going for candid, un-posed shots.

This is a full frame lenses. I am not familiar with the D3200. Nikon has a great site with a chat room. I would suggest you go there before making any decisions. I'm sure you will find someone shooting with a D3200.

I understand your situation, but for shooting indoor sports the wider aperture is the way to go. Save up for the 200mm telephoto. It's a great lens and considerably less expensive than something like a 70-200 IS ii.

You can use this lens on your D3200 but only in the M(manual) mode. As this is a classic manual focus lens, it will not auto focus on any camera; including yours. Hope this helps. Thank you for shopping our store. We appreicate your business. Blue Penn Cameras

It is an excellent lens for close ups and distances when there is good light environment, but not for low light situations, unless you have a flash. For indoors would be better a f/2.8 lens or less (f/1.2 or 1.4).

Will work well BUT: be aware, it is a very heavy lens. I leave the tripod collar on as I find it a comfortable grip when hand holding the camera/lens. If you try to use the 80-400 with the D3200 on a tripod using the camera's tripod mount, you will risk breaking the lens mount on the camera. If using the lens on a tripod, you must use the lens mount on the lens, not the camera to attach the outfit to the tripod.

I have this lense and a Canon 6D. I have used it indoors for volleyball and basketball games. You will need the ISO Iin the 3200-6400 range, but the photos are very good even at that ISO.

It certainly depends on the size of the room. However, due to the aperture of F8 for this lens, its really not a good choice for indoor shots. Your camera will have to perform really well at high iso.
