QUOTE(KTCY @ Oct 13 2008, 05:24 PM) Comparing full frame with D40 is like comparing Ferrari with Proton. of course not comparing la,but kena poison like that memang susah. With the price of AF-S 50mm f1.4 I'd rather get a D80 and get the old version of 50mm f/1.4 i've been thinking to get a prime for myself la,i dont have a prime after all 1,if getting a d80, Autofocus with older generation lense is not a problem already |

QUOTE(Darkcursed @ Oct 13 2008, 05:16 PM) guys,hmm,shooting with my d40 all these long,recently starting to felt it does not satisfied my need,felt it was so tiny "Feels so tiny" is definitely a new reason that I've come across.my aim was d300 jump but it was way too out of my budget already,yesterday kena poison by full frame camera,fuiyoo,dam nice man  should i consider upgrade d80 or buying a AF-S 50mm f1.4 instead? And Full Frame Camera is a lot more expensive than the D300. If you can find a specific reason to justify the upgrade to the D80, or to buy the AF-S 50mm f1.4, then go for it... just don't upgrade for the sake of upgrading. |

Well, Ken Rockwell is well-known for supporting the cheaper lenses.
I think he will gladly tell you to go for the 18-200mm over the 24-70mm. |
