tk foto,945,havent got time to fully try it out maybe during weekend

Wondering should get New DXII or bNS DXI... Sigh......

 

[grievor]

both look the same...dx2 has gold writing instead of silver and i think weighs a little heavier...gonna test it out over the weekend and compare images

nope from what i asked tk, they say they might not be bringing it in since most canon bodies have an AF motor built in so, works with the original DX model.

The DX ii are more for the nikon models which dont have their own AF motor.

well thats what i heard.

see what body u have ? if yours can autofocus with the DXi then no pt getting the dx 2 right? save $$

Also look at artworkfoto and technogadgets. I personally don't like ddelectronics after my experiences at the last purchase.

for d7000, it better to use version1 ?

since d7000 got Af motor, it doesnt matter if u use 1 or 2 both can auto focus..so why waste money?
