Yes
I'm not sure if this goes in here but I think it's more a lighting Q. please move if am wrong

Well the titel says it all. I just bought this:

D70s body with all covers, manuals, AV output cable and is boxed.

2 x Nikon Lion batteris + Nikon charger.

1 x Sigma DC 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 Lens, fully boxed and with nine months waranty remaining.

1 x Sigma DL 35-80mm multi coated lens.

1 x Futin pro digital wide convertor 0.45x52mm with macro adaptor supplied in protective Peli 1120 hard case.

1 x 2gb compact flash card.

1 x soft carry case for the camera and lens with three accessory pockets.


For about £300 (good deal? Dunno. Am happy with it so that'll do:nuts:)
This probably seems a silly question,
but will the lenses it comes with be okay for strobing?

I mean, would it be worth my while selling some of the lenses and getting something decent or are the lenses that come with this okay? (I think the Sigma DL is pretty guff from what I've seen)
(I got an SB26 and 24 incoming for the light and some wireless triggers for remotes).
 
They'll do to get started, you can always upgrade later on. Btw, get yourself an SC-28 cable (or an ebay clone) and with a quick snip you'll have access to up to 1/8000 flash sync with the D70s (y)
