WELL,
my 18th bday is coming up, and my parents have offered me a sort of interest free loan to get something i would like (i have to pay it back, but no interest AND its pretty flexable obviously lol.) So thats ace, BUT i have a problem.
I would love a 70-200 2.8.... i currently dont have anything above a 125mm and even then its like f/5.6 at that length. So that would be brill, but then i gaze over at the D300 and think....sweeeet. Its mainly the ISO performance that makes me want it.. im currently using a Fuji S3 Pro, which is a nice camera, but you dont really want to push it past iso 800.
They both cost about the same, but i guess the question im asking is. Do i upgrade glass wise or body wise. My thinking was the 70-200 will be in my bag for many, many years, whereas the d300 will most likley become outdated.
Any advice or what you would do would be grand.
Thanks
Dave
