Just a warning for anyone out there:

Do not attach a 70-200mm f2.8 VR to your d70s under any circumstances. Also do not look at a mates d200, especially when its in action.

The result will be a huge hole in your back pocket!

MattyO, if you get sick of the 70-200VR, please post it over to Coffs Hbr and I'll use it on your behalf. I'll even give you my el cheapo Tamron 300mm lens.... :D

Hi Matty,
Its hard enough to resist when I look at the quality of photos that are produced by you guys with your 70-200VR lenses. I must get one of these at some stage.... If somehow I could convince the wife :)
Cheers

heeheehee ... who taught you that? :twisted:

Oh, and I just bought a (canon) 50mm f1.8, but I'm not allowed to use it until Christmas Day. Your photo has me looking forward to being able to use it!

Hey, a very nice combination indeed. Lucky you!

I can't tell you how it is that I'm living without a 70-200VR. The day I get enough money (which might never happen), I'm gonna throw it on that lens the first thing.
