Digital Home Thoughts: I Pulled the Trigger: Nikon D300 and 24-70mm f2.8 Lens On the Way

Well, I did it: after a couple of months of pondering and waiting for a few reviews to come out, I've made the decision and have placed my order for the Nikon D300 and for the Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G IF ED lens. It's a very strange feeling the first time you order a lens that's more expensive than the brand new camera, but this is some seriously awesome glass and after looking at all the grainy ISO 1600 photos I snapped at Christmas (because my lens was so slow), I knew it was time to get something better for the type of natural light shooting that I do. So, with great anticipation I await the arrival of my new camera and lens - thankfully I have CES to distract me, or I might not sleep all weekend. ;-)
