Nikon D300s (body)
The Nikon D300s is a great camera, especially if you need the burst speed or slightly improved low-light focus, but if you don't care about video you might consider looking for a really good deal on a D300 and using what you save to splurge on a good lens.
Price: $1,699.99 - $2,841.83 (check prices)
