thanks

my friend reccomended them so, thats why i ended up with that

i have just (tonight) bougth another lense also bought a wide angle lense..... so i will see how i get on with those

The lens makes all the difference to a picture, so its worth investing in good glass. I still regret selling my Nikon18-70mm lens as it is a great reasonably price walkaround lens.

i bought what my friend told me too - a 70-300mm......

gawd help me if im wrong

can return it and hes buying the same one next week too

any more i can bear in mind for the next purchase (couple a months)!

I had the non VR version of that lensif its Nikon, takes good pictures but I sold it for the latest vesion and wouldn't be without it as you can see on the list below. Phil actually bougth the previous lens from me and produced some excellent pictures with it.

Bazza

i think its the same one in your sig

wil find out when it comes lol!!

Some lovely shots to start out with - I like the angle on 4 - very cool! Try reading the YOp! guides - they are a great help to beginners! - they are under photography basics at the side nearer to the top!
