They're both based on Nikon's bodies.

S2 Pro, and that's not just based on the S2 Pro having more megapixels. The F80-based body of the S2 Pro is so much better than the F60-based body. The latter does not even support most of the functions of the SB28, has no continuous mode (except in the "Sports" mode), high starting ISO of 320, doesn't accept AF-S lenses and several other small 'problems'. Otherwise, image quality of the S1 is already excellent.
I'd always tell people, "Excellent camera, horrible body".

So S2 and D100, which one would you choose? ;p

Well for two grand, I'd forget the CF tripod and go find a 2nd hand 17-35.

Hmm... that's an interesting one... but no, AF-S is not hardly necessary for a wide angle zoom. Wouldn't the 15-30 also be manual focus then? Leaving the 18-35 from Nikon as the next option.

To be honest, the lack of metering for mf lenses in those two bodies is a pain in the neck.
No 500mm mirror lenses... (no stalking... heh.) No relatively cheap mf lenses...

AFAIK Sigma only makes the non-HSM in other mounts... i.e. not Nikon and Canon where they produce HSM versions. I'm quite possibly wrong though.

There's something really cool, known as a Sekonic L608. :devil:

I'll like to see you use that when covering an event. ;p

F60/S1 Pro can accept AFS lenses. Metering still on, A, P, S, M, program modes still can be used. What it looses is just the AF function, and you have to use manual focus.
