I hope Amazon brings down the price:
List Price: $3,990.00
Price: $3,599.95
I don’t care if it has free shipping! $599 more with free shipping?
SCRATCH THAT!
It’s a kit with the 24-120mm! Sorry.
Well, let me ask you, I heard that the 24-120mm is kinda sub-par, is that true?
Amazon say : This item will be released on September 5, 2008.
Bad news….
Yeah, September is too far… I hear J&R will have them by the end of July!
Excited!
Estimated availability – August on BH Photo
Just wanted to point out B&H isn’t accepting pre-orders. They have it listed on their site, but you can’t order it.
You are correct. Sorry. I will update the post now.
I would really like to hear more from the blog admin and other nikon fans about what zoom lens would be best to match with the d700. I see the kit lens is the 24-120 f/3.5-5.6G, but the reviews have been pretty bad for that lens. I hate to by a $3000 body and put a sub-par lens on it. However, the other option looks like the 24-70 f/2.8, which is about $1700 right now. Is there a tack sharp medium zoom in the ballpark of $800-$1100? Something like the Canon 24-105mm f/4L. I’m fine with the f/4, I just want a sharp lens with good glass.
There is really nothing FX in that price range. Hopefully now, FX will start dropping in price.
