[QUOTE="Nikonitus, post: 85982, member: 10962"] Yeah likewise - Congrats. I never heard of that competition. I bought my D600 about 3 or 4 weeks back. As a matter of fact it may well have been one the first sold in NZ. I got my hands on it the day the D600 was released in NZ. I wish I had have known about that comtetition... Never mind... What do I mean by averagely priced for a lens...!!! Well, lets put it this way. It costs here, about half the price of the 24-120mm, or even about 3/4 of the price of the 28-300mm lens. Of course the actual prices will differ slightly from country to country,, even store to store,, but that should give you an idea of what you pay for one. Personally I think the 70-300mm lens is quite a buy. I bought mine for the D300 about 3+ years ago and never regretted it one bit. I had a big sell off of most of my lenses a year or so ago, because I just wasn't using most of them but the 70-300mm stayed. That was/is one lens I "know" I can get good results from, so it stays - fullstop...!!! Thanks Phillydog,, they were more in the interest of the America's Cup rather than trying to get good results. My brothers and I follow that yachting series like bloodhounds after a fox. Some of the Team NZ guys know us by sight as we have supported them in the past for quite some time now.
