Depends if you really need that lens or not and if not, what you could get back selling it on.

If you want that lens then it looks like a decent enough deal, especially if you can find a discount voucher online.

Looks as if the lens would do about £250 or so on Ebay and the kit is £200 more than buying just a body, but if you factored in Ebay and Paypal fees it would come out just about even, so if you didn't want that particular lens maybe it's not such a great deal after all.....

Thanks for the help, would rather get hold of the 17-55 f2.8. Wallet started to itch then :¬)

Might hold off until xmas to see if anyone offers more encouraging deals.

Only thing is....the D700 is an FX camera and the 17-55 is a DX lens :nono:

Serious point - if you are looking at the 17-55 f/2.8 and think it will be a good lens for the D700, I would re-think your purchase regarding the D700.
