    It's not unusual for a lens to cost more than a body. Plus you will be able to upgrade your body and use the same lenses. Of course if you go with Nikon

    Ya...basically i am looking at this lense as an all-in-one lense that i can use when im not using the macro and fisheye...for those 2, they are great for what i use them for...but right now i dont really have a good camera for just regular shooting.
