I bought my D300 with the 18-200 lens, then bought the pro lens and am still using the D300 body. I'm waiting on the upgrade to the D700 before considering a new body.

TTQ B4U Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Pro Lens- Vs Pro Body- what to buy first? My blunt statement, always go with high quality glass first. The body doesn't matter nearly as much. Not only does contrast and color make a difference but weather seals and build quality do as well. AutoFocus is critical and with most DSLR's the lens will slow down the camera. Good Optics are key and the reason good glass is expensive. Good optics are priceless though. What you're paying for in good lenses is what you don't get. These are the most common issues with cheap glass.

Ditch the glass filters of days gone by and use a hood. It serves several purposes, one of which is protection, the other is Image Quality.
