So, im in a pickle!
I am leaving for a month long trip to europe in a few weeks.
I currently have the kit 18-55 lens and a 55-200 vr lens for my Nikon d40.
I have been searching EVERYWHERE for the new 35mm 1.8G DX but every place is sold out! People on eBay are selling them, but for $250 and up! they retail for $200.
If i dont wind up getting the 35mm prime, i was going to replace my two CURRENT lenses with the 18-200 VR and sell the two i have to help recover my funds....this would also allow me to ditch my camera backpack and just bring this one lens along....
OR
totally forget about a new lens and just buy a flash, such as the sb-600 or equivalent of third party that is less expensive...
any suggestions/opions/knowledge on where i can actually get the 35mm prime without waiting for "shipment to come in"?? thanks!
