So we're out, taking advantage of Black's price guarantee (we got $57 back on the cost of the D50 because it dropped in price last month) and I figure "what the hell" - I bought a 70-300mm Nikon lens.
Sure, it burned up the cash-back offering, but hey - it's a sweet lens!
It's "only" a G lens, not the ED series, but damn it takes nice shots!
After the cash-back was applied to the cost of the lens, it was cheaper than a Sigma 55-200mm lens. Not a bad deal in my books!

Some with the stock 18-55m lens, some with the 70-300mm lens. :)
