thats a good point...Im not sure what distance the 60mm AFD starts to stop down....but it would be a bit longer than .45m I think

I think the extra two stops that the 1.4 would give me would be great for my night time basketball shots..plus the upcoming season is the first where Ill have my D700..so plenty of scope I hope for better Basket ball shots...Ive always had to underexpose before to keep shutter speeds up and the try and pull it back in post
DOF might be a issue ..but the players are normally about 2-3 meters away from me
EDIT
crikey DOF will only be .300 at 3 meters..should be good for some shots....add some artistic blur to others ..LOL
