I captured this earlier today with my D3100 and the cheap 55-200mm lens. I am planning my migration to FX, which frankly is probably 1-2 years away still, and was thinking about purchasing the new 80-400mm AF-S (FX) lens. Will I get better image quality with that lens and my D3100? Or, will the lens hit a capability wall with the cheaper DX camera? Does anyone see any problems with me getting that lens for use with my D3100?

Yesterday I read Thom Hogan's review of the new 80-400 AF-S Nikkor. It's quite a good lens, especially on DX. The 55-200 is no great shakes, whereas the 80-400 AF-S is more or less "excellent", according to him. I think the added reach, at the same f/stop, of the $2,400 lens would help actually. His new site is dslrbodies.com.
 
Fantastic shot!!! Really nice!
