Any reason why you are staying away from DX lenses? You have a full frame camera?
Not yet, but I will soon be moving to an FX camera. I'm currently sticking to lenses that can be swapped between my digital camera and my film cameras and eventually my FX digital camera. Makes sense. In that case go for the 50mm f/1.4D and if you have a FX/film, the 50mm is actually 2.5mm shorter than the 35mm DX due to the crop factor. |

If you really want this lens, Adorama is selling grey market versions for $220 with free shipping:
http://www.adorama.com/NK3518G.html?sid=1247190385250211 Adorama is one of the most reliable mail-order camera stores in the US, so you can expect that they got these from a legit source. Warranty coverage is limited, though (1 year store warranty, not from Nikon). |

If any of you are in the LA area (South Bay to be more precise)... Paul's Photo in Torrance had a handful in stock. They were selling them for $199 + tax. I picked one up last Friday. |
