So I've finally saved enough for a D300, 1 lens [unfortunately], and the usual goodies.
So, I do a lot of shooting for my school ranging from indoor candid photos to sporting events, and I'm upgrading to the D300.
So, I need some recommendations...
Obviously the D300.
I need a good mid-focal length lens, something like 18-105 or such. Also, I'm looking at the 70-200 for sporting events, and places where I need a bit more zoom since last time I went on the sideline to cover the game, the ref kicked me out, haha.
This to be exact:
Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8D G-AFS ED-IF Autofocus VR Lens
I mean something that would go to 300mm would be awesome, but I can't afford that right now, and I'm more involved with indoor stuff than anything for school.
Like I stated before I take a lot of photos, and switching out batteries is a PAIN.
Does the MB-D10 support the EL4a battery? The 8fps would be really nice during games.
I'm a little confused about Nikon's battery grip, so the D300 supports 8fps with the extra battery grip, but it HAS to be a EL4 in the grip, and then the default EL3 in the actual camera?
Thanks for any help guys!
