Please Help! Dont know what to spend my £400 on.
I have £400+ burning an hole in my pocket and want to upgrade. I am torn between a new camera to use alongside my existing one or a nice new lens.
The kit i have is as follows:
Nikon D40
Nikor 18-55mm Kit lens (non vr)
Nikor 50mm 1.8d Prime
Cosina 100mm MF Macro
Sigma 70-300mm Apo Dg Macro.
Jessops 360Afd Flash Unit.
I Like the D40 it was all i could afford at the time but its limitations are starting to show now with only 3AF points, lack of Live view, Low resolution etc.
So i was looking at upgrading to a D5000 with a VR kit lens for £415 ish i could sell my kit lens. Also it may be some time before i can afford to buy a new camera if i dont buy now.
I Also fancy a better lens something like a Tamron 18-270mm allrounder though read a few bad reviews. Or a Nikor 70-300mm VR i am struggling with my existing lenses in weaker light and at the longer lengths and the VR would help. I could px my Sigma. What would you do in this position Camera or lens?
Thx Paul.
