Yesterday was a little sad as my D300s plus my wife's D300 and 70-300VR went off to be exchanged for cash :miserable: We'd hung onto them as backups when we got the D800 and D7100, but in reality the new cameras just did everything better, except perhaps the FPS and buffer which doesn't affect our shooting.

Last weekend I made the mistake :eek: of lending my good lady my 70-200 2.8 VRII and TC-20e III on a visit to the zoo. I'd wanted her to try this lens for a while as I thought she would be pleasantly surprised at the way this sort of lens performs versus her 18-200 and 70-300. There is nothing wrong with those lenses it's just that this one offers a different level of performance. As you can see from the picture she liked the result as the new 70-200 arrived today, along with a 7100 for our backup camera. In the UK the 70-200 is currently on a £160 cashback deal and the D7100 on a £100 cashback. The 7100 will also be my go to camera when I want the extra crop factor/resolution such as wildlife or macro. At least all of our camera bodies will now be used rather than two sitting on the shelf.

I keep reading posts like this, as well as listen to a local who has a D7100, and I may have to have one of those things. It's looking like that's more likely to happen than me getting the AF-S 300 that I wanted.

You got a new 70-200 in the deal; what about the TC?

The 70-200 is my wife's. She wants to hold off on the TC-20e iii 2x teleconvertor until she's played with the lens. She also has a kenko 1.4 TC which may be useful and has the use of my 2x.

I love my Fuji X100 so much I just picked up an x-e1 with kit lens for less than half the price of x-e2 and kit lens.
