I think I should be more specific. It is important for the camera and lens to be able to photograph explosive action with at least 400mm of focal length at a comparable price to the Canon Equivalent (7d + 400 f/5.6). Even if it costs a bit more that is okay, just so long as it is not substantially more.
I know with Nikon you pay more perhaps for better quality or perhaps because Nikon does not have it\'s tentacles in everything like Canon so they may not be able to offer the same price point. Which is fine, it is what it is and I will just have to wait till I can afford Nikon perhaps. I do know that at this point I am fed up with the Canon Service/repair department and do not want to contribute to the company any longer (it has really left a bad taste in my mouth).
Would the D700 + 300 f/4 AFS and 1.4 TC II (no TC III yet correct) be capable of great AF in order to capture explosive action.
To be even more specific do you think that combo could capture images similar to the ones on the second page here (3rd wigeon shot down, the diving red head and Pied billed grebe shots).
Thanks so much for everyone\'s input, very appreciated!
