Added on March 4, 2011, 7:59 pmfor me i stick to lowepro bags.
ur best option if u just want to carry d7000 + kit lens is exchange messenger, rm180+ or passport sling, rm230+.
if u want to put ur 70-200, u need something bigger and will already look like it has a camera inside...or wont look stylish.

70-300 vr.
actually its sharper abit, but photobucket compressed abit more.

flipside 300 isnt exactly small.
imo in the long run u may have anywhere from 2 to 4-5 diff bags for diff occassions.
after awhile u may get irritated at backpacks especially if u have to change lens often...then end up with a sling bag...
after that u realise that sometimes u may want to carry just basic...then have another smaller bag...
and goes on and on

wow 2 diff charges.
when i asked at BTS they told me about RM100 for cleaning, and have to leave it overnight.

sigma 70-200 there is one with OS, but its about rm4.5k.
but since u mention the none OS one, guess ur budget is around rm2-3k only?
anyway, go with your needs.

obviously VR helps in low light, and can let u shoot at at much lower speeds at full zoom than either sigma or 80-200.
in daylight, depending what is shot i think its going to be hard to tell the difference between all 3 lenses if no one says anything.

only thing the 70-300VR loses out is of cos if u need high shutter speeds of at least 1/125 etc in low light...then u need to boost iso...which then will reduce image sharpness...even tho the image will look somewhat clean.

looks like u didnt or cant read properly, i said "if u need high shutter speeds of at least 1/125 etc in low light", with respect to shooting events like dances / concerts etc where ppl obviously do not stay still...whereas if i had a constant 2.8 i can get 2 stops of ISO.

well D7000 can record 20mins of video.
only 2 real valid reasons i have heard about the limitation.
one has to do with a 4gb file limit on the FAT32 system, another is that if it was any longer it would no longer be classified under cameras and thus fall into a diff tax category.

well if it could then for sure can get long recording time.
guess theres only one way to find out, so thats all up to u to try

in short if u want AF, u need to buy a lens that says AF-S on it.

really la, all the time u spent typing so far, can google right away for the answer and save time...

yesterday better...a friend passed her dslr to someone ask to shoot a pic...
the guy dunno how to zoom...he thought the zoom is near the shutter button like on compacts

but both 24-70 and 28-70 also AF-S lenses...cant be any difference in the motor right?

i always thought for smaller lenses u wont notice much difference in AF-S speeds, cos if not mistaken AF-S came about to help those huge 400mm, 500mm, 600mm lenses focus faster.

lowepro adventura 170, rm150+.
lowepro passport sling, rm230+.
lowepro inverse 100, rm220+.
oem canon crumpler 5mh, rm150+

just make sure its on AF-S mode and not AF-C, else after u move it will focus on the new point

KLCC one hasnt moved, just undergoing long renovation.
suppose to open again either this month or next.

depends for what model.
some is clip-on, those one got no viewfinder protection.
for D7000, its got viewfinder protection, and imo the design is dumb cos it only stays in place via the viewfinder slot.
there is no clip below the lcd part to clip on to the body, so it can move sometimes.
here's mine anyway, im going to put another GGS 1st gen on the LCD, and then 3rd gen one over it, use it to extend the viewfinder away from the body abit.

yea its abit loose, thats why theres another small rod there to prevent it from moving around.
wont fall off anyway

can la...i use it with my 80-200 also no problem...70-200 vr2 is just slightly heavier only.

who said not so much available in the market?
so many AF-S lenses out there.
24mm 1.4, 35mm 1.8, 50mm 1.4, 10-24mm, 12-24mm, 16-35mm, 16-85mm, 17-55mm, 70-300mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm....list can go on and on.

btw, i just saw a used AF-S 300mm f/4...rm3k.
