Thanks for the informative replies guys. Not interested in the pissing match though. Any popcorn left?
Another question. (God forbid! LOL)
The wife is also interested in a new lens. Has anyone any experience with the 85 1.8 and the 85 1.4? Huge difference in price, but is it really worth it? Would these lenses create any differences in the pictures with either camera listed above? (or would one be better than the other?)
The difference is in the quality of the glass.
And there would also be a big difference between the D300 and the D700, with the 700 it wouldn't crop in on the image.. For instance.. The 85mm is a FX [full frame] lens. When you put it on a DX body.. it will make things appear closer... because the camera is not taking full advantage of the lens.
In otherwords... To fit things in the frame, you wouldn't have to be as far back with the D700 as you would with the D300.
*edit*
It can be like this picture... the green is Full frame sensor.. the Red would be a Crop sensor.
