Re: this is very upsetting: canon 17-55 f/2.8 vs. 24-105 f/4 L
I love camera geek drama! Just visit my blog, http://www.xanga.com/CameraTalk if you want camera geek drama...

I was quite upset, only because it had taken me a lot of hard work to master the C-41 Kodak process and the EP2 printing process. Now click click and better results are achieved with no… -

Re: Does it really matter....
On lenses J: Keep in mind that the D40 can't use all of the same lenses that are available to the others. It's restricted to AF-S lenses (which eliminates almost all of the fast wide, normal, and mid-telephoto primes). H: Here's a recent list (not compiled by me)... From Nikon: WIDE-ANGLE -AF 10.5mm f/2.8G ED . . . $… -
