Sigma 30/f1.4 vs Nikon 50/f1.4
April 21st, 2008 · 1 Comment

Deal Alert:D300 with 18-200 VR lens
April 10th, 2008 · 4 Comments
Nikon is offering a $300 instant rebate on the purchase of a D300 with an 18-200/f3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR DX lens when purchased from an authorized dealer through May 11. This is a fantastic deal, considering the 18-200 was selling for above-MSRP prices on eBay not all that long ago.
