    Just picked up two new additions. I've crossed over, I wonder if there will be fighting in my bag between the K10D and the fresh arrivals, lol.

    (Another phone photo).

    No fight The D300 is a really nice unit.
    I stuck with Pentax coz the changeover was too much. (That said, the K20D is fantastic).

    very nice combo!

    I just got my D300 at the start of this week, remarkable camera, you'll love it!

    I would be interested to see how you like the 70-200 on the D300. I don't need that focal length enough to justify the nikkor, maybe the sigma is a good alternative value wise.

    Shooting drift all Saturday, will be sure to post the results. As I am changing from Pentax to Nikon I need to rebuy everything so went the Sigma option for the medium term.

    Guess what? My husband who is kind-hearted and the bestest in the whole wide world, had purchased me a new Canon camera and the lens today!!!!! YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!

    He went to the shops without telling me and surprised me with the shopping bags.

    I am so HAPPY

    I did the test on the new camera with Tamron and it went beautifully. I am so in love with this machine.

    Thank you all for giving me all advice of what to get... I think this whole thing has influenced my husband because he got an extra lens for himself! He'd like to do landscapes. I just hope we don't fight over who take turn to use the camera!

    Got a kenko Pro 300 2x teleconvertor yesterday. Not a big WooHoo, but will be interesting to give it a bit of a go. Might attach it to the 70-200 and try to improve my bird shots.

    That will be very interesting Rick. I've seen some great and some not so great using the 2.0 TC, but, dont you have the Sigma 70-200? I did not think Kenko's work on the Sigma HSM lenses. Mine didn't.
