I just recently upgraded to the D300 from my D50 a big jump but i realize i now need new glass to compliment the new body. So, if i am going to invest i want quality and my budget is around $2,000. so the 70-200mm and the 300mm f4 are looking to be my best choices im leaning tword the 70-200mm f2.8 as i enjoy photographing other things besides birds. I love bird photography but this lens will be used for wildlife and landscape and basically outdoor photography. Plus te f2.8 combined with the autofocus speed of my D300 sounds like a match made in heaven.</p></blockquote><p></p>
