Full frame

So, it’s time for another upgrade on the camera front. If I knew what I know now I never would have bought the D300 last August, I would have saved a bit more and gone straight for the D700. The D300 is an incredible camera for sure but I really need to have a properly wide shift lens and that means going full frame. The 24mm PC-E is about a 36mm lens on the DX sensor of the D300 but properly wide at 24mm on the D700. That makes a massive difference when trying to do any kind of internal shoot. Recently I’ve been hiring the D700. I’m pretty sure it’s the right thing to do. Hopefully when the latest invoices get paid and I’ve sold the D300 on eBay I’ll have enough to get it.

All I have to do then is save some more to get the shift lens to avoid hiring that any more!
