Don't get me wrong I'd try for all Nikkor if possible, but like Gem said I'm a name brand guy when it comes to certain things.

Been ripped off one too many times by cheap brands (again, on certain things)

I too do photography as a hobby. I have Nikon F5, a Bronica ETRsi, and a Sony DSC707... Ok, it's an expensive hobby. But when I need to take picstures of my ass, I have the right equipment and that's what counts.

Here is what I've got my eye on next:
Nikon - Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED Vibration Reduction Lens.

"Nikon's new 80-400mm high-power zoom lens features an innovative Vibration Reduction (VR) system that allows handheld supertelephoto shooting at dusk, at night and even in poorly lit rooms.

The Lens' VR system minimizes image blur caused by camera shake, and offers the equivalent of shooting at a shutter speed three stops (eight times) faster*. The lens offers a natural viewfinder image even during VR operation and also detects automatically when the photographer pans. This exciting new Nikkor is ideal for candid portrait, sports photography and more."

Great for sports photography, however I don't think it's compatible with your camera, Eq.


And EQ, WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH YOUR SIG?!?! It wrecks my fuckin browser!
Hehe yea yesterday I had a 14in monitor last night driving home found 4 monitors 21 in 19 in two 17 in only one of the 17in works but his sig on my 14in really screwed the thread up now it looks normal
