[QUOTE="stmv, post: 796616, member: 10038"] amazing,,, this blog is wrapping up soon, I have been starting a new thread after about 20 entries, just because scrolling gets too long, too bad their is not an option of showing the last post on top. I got thinking about how obscessed one can get thinking about the best lens posssible, but I really wonder in the real world how much hair splitting we are doing. With kids in college now, I have joined the proverty stage where every extra dollar has to be mailed to those brick buildings. Every 6 months, more then every dollar I have ever spent on camera gear flies out the door. I am pretty much going to hunker down for another 3-4 years until they finnally finish. Luckily, I managed to squeeze in some more favorite choices, I cashed in a Visa Awards and was able to get the 105 DC lens,, sweet. along with a super deal on the 80-400, and 300 F4. I sold off most of my lens that I were not using,, and while some lens might sit for a while, eventually, they all get used. Only exception: an old 50-300 zoom,, its a tank, It the next lens on my sell list, I have purchased almost all my gear in the last 2 years by selling off old gear. That way my wife could not complain, but, except for this and a few old clunkers, I am at the state that I don't have any gear I want to sell off anymore. I might still sell the 50-300,, but is such a cool antique, and shows what quality Nikon used to build to. They used to call this the Safari lens. [/QUOTE]
