[QUOTE="silverthornne, post: 52632, member: 8585"] Precisely because the camera isn't cheap! ;) Seriously though, I consider money spent on lenses to be a wiser investment. That I spent a lot on the camera doesn't mean I have money to throw around; it just meant that I sacrificed something else to get a camera I thought would be better for my needs at that point. When I got the camera I had a choice: the 35mm 1.8G lens or the Nikon grip. I chose the lens. It's been 7 months since then and I now have another choice: Grip or Flash and I decided to do some research and I'm getting both, but in the form of knockoffs.
