Congrats' on your lens! Please post your findings. I am in the middle of a similar dilemma.

Can you post a picture of your D40 with the 70-200 f/2.8 on? I'd like to see how that beast look on the little D40 :)

I apologise for the terrible quality, but I only have the one body so I had to use an old compact to take a picture.

With the teleconverter attached it is even funnier.

Congratulations on your purchase, and good luck out there with that 'beast'.

Shots are up on my flickr page (link in sig) from my first race meeting with the beast.

By the way, some shots were taken with a 1.7 teleconverter so may not represent the lens entirely.
