    Probably not worth your while at the moment.

    I only upgraded to a D700 myself because Id been using my Fuji S3 for 2 and a half years and it wasnt cutting it anymore (and Fuji dropped out of the DSLR market).

    I had to buy a new lens to go with it, the 24-70mm f2.8 as my old ones were DX glass too. I can however still use my Tokina 11-16mm up at the 15/16mm range and I have a clunker of an 80-200mm f2.8 too.

    You could however batch everything up or sell your gear individually, someone might have some Xmas money burning a hole in their pocket out there that might want a deal on a D300 and lenses.

    This post says you upgraded - last post says you want to upgrade

    I am taking your advice to stick with my D300.
