I got quite a few nice shots with it, both of wildlife and some landscapes. Much more user (and wallet) friendly than the 70-200, though obviously lacks the faster aperture. I have no regrets having made the switch, however.

I got rid of the D700 a while back when I switched to Sony. However, I had a handful of Zeiss glass and with the lack of good primes coming out in ZA I decided to get back on board. So I bought a D3s and D3x with a few Nikon Lenses. By the way, I have never seen a camera perform in low light like the D3s. have a look at these [url]http://www.nikonimages.com/showgallery.php?membercollection=224
