Good Photo Printer or 300mm zoom Lens???

[fangelico]

Trying to decide next purchase.. anyone is welcome to persuade me..
the HP B9180 printer or a new Nikon lens 70-300mm VR ..

Would like to hear from anyone with this HP... Thanks!!

Considering you are looking for comments from anyone who owns the printer, sounds like you already made your decision ;). Myself, I'm a glass junkie, I'd choose the 300mm

Interesting observation... actually I also really enjoy shopping/buying new glass.. but I know that I would make more use of the printer...

Printer it is, then. That was easy! :)

Buy the glass; lots of places to get pictures printed.

Ah.. finally a good reason to buy the glass... just what I was looking for! thanks!!

A printer is always available and it has been my experience that the lens will last longer and be a more worthwhile investment. Just find a good fine art printer online and go to them with the new pics from your 300mm.
