[QUOTE="TwistedThrottle, post: 719575, member: 46724"] Just my opinion but from your lens list that you have, I think the 80-400 would be a significant overlap of what you already have. It appears you dont have fast telephotos, so that's the route I would take- just be sure to get the OS version. Nikon just announced the 120-300 f2.8 they'll be releasing with the D6 in time for the Olympics. Its going to be a popular focal length,(if the weight doesn't bother you). Its probably not the best length for BIF, but it would work with a teleconverter much better than the 80-400. If you like the range of the 80-400 and shoot near f8 most of the time, have you considered the sigma 100-400? [/QUOTE]
