Does anyone know who might have the Nikon 28-300mm lens in stock? Can't seem to find one anywhere.

Thanks

Have you considered the Tamron 18-270? http://www.simplyelectronics.net/mainproduct.php?pid=12653 I photographed this wedding entirely with Tamron lens http://www.cokerphotos.com/Weddings/Baker/23471141_87PVzt#!i=1899846624&k=V3QjCtZ

I actually have one… a good lens, but I need an FX lens that I can use as a walk-aroung for the D800, the tamron is a DX. Thanks for the suggestion for an alternative.

I had also been waiting for 3 months for the camera. Dusty… a fellow hog… clued me in to American TV in Appleton Wisconsin where he made his purchase. I called two weeks ago… I received my camera yesterday.

The only problem… I had ordered initially with B&H and had included the extended service plan. American does not offer any additional coverage. Last time I spoke to an American sales rep, they had 3 camera's not accounted for.

If anyone is interested… ask to speak to a sales rep, don't order online. Where did you purchase your lens?

I should say "not spoken for" instead of "accounted"

Have you tired the usual suspects:

B&H, Adorama, KEH, Samy's and of course there is always Nikon!
