Been playing with my old sigma 135-400 on the D5100 today and didn't enjoy it because of the lack of compatibility,to be honest the main thing was no autofocus,this set me thinking the sigma was used a lot at 400mm on the D70 so say 6million pixels if i used the complete image.
I am giving serious thought to the Nikon 70-300 af-s vr ect lens, now using this at 300mm on my new camera if i use only 50% of the image my mind tells me i will most likley end up with a better quality image,due to more pixels and a lens which is a lot newer design and if i use more than the 50% i gain even more and this is with a shorter focal length lens.
So am i being slow,thick or have i got it right you can be honest if its thick.
