First, I want to apologize for ruining another topic in hopes to get my question answered.
Ok, now lens-talk. Suppose there were two lenses that were exactly the same, except that one was AF and the other was MF. The AF costs $500, how much would you pay for the MF? I'm just wondering if the focus type affects the overall price of the lens as much as I think it does.

| I don't know what the difference would be, but I would always prefer to have the manual focus lens. |

really....so what would you think of this lens then:Ebay lens
I now it isn't the highest quality lens, but I want to get zoom lens that reaches 300mm without spending too much money. |

At that price you can't go wrong...
As for AF vs MF, I'd rather have an AF lens -- with an AF/MF switch.

| I figure I might as well b/c it is so cheap. Plus I've read some reviews about it and they were good. |

If I had a D70 I'd go for it.

Should I base most of my decision on the f/ or focal length? |

Ok, I got my lens, so I thought I'd show you a few pics I took!
Both shots were taken at 300mm... |
