I've been following the camera dilemma thread closely as I hopefully get to buy a new set this week. Right now I'm leaning towards the Nikon D70s + kitlens and a Sigma 170-500.
I've had the Nikon in my hands and found the kitlens to be a bit difficult to zoom in and out. Manual focus had the same difficulty. It felt like the lens was not rotating smoothly. Can anybody comment on the quality of the Nikon kitlens - handling as well as picture quality?
Also I'm still not certain if there is a teleconverter for the Nikon and the Sigma 170-500 f5.6 wich will not stop the lens down to f11 and keeps the autofocus operating. Any suggestions on that?
Thanks!
