Frank, the 28-300 was made with the D700 and D3's in mind. Try it out and read the reviews; it's an excellent lense and lots of professional photographers use it for half serious reportage. Here is a link to a test made by a very serious French magazine; [url="http://www.lemondedelaphoto.com/Le-pique,5171.html"]http://www.lemondedelaphoto.com/Le-pique,5171.html[/url] ! As you can see, the piqué (sharpness) is excellent or very good at all focal ranges. The only negative is some distortion that can be easily dealt with in Capture NX2!
