also, the ISO performance of a D7000 is better than the D300s, even if you shot in RAW and lowered the pixel count and tweaked your image in post, in the end, you could do the same with an image taken with the D7000 and it'd still be better. not to say the noise on the D300s is unfavourable, it's still an amazing camera it terms of low light performance.
and i don't understand why you're posting professional lenses on this thread, if people were tossing up between the D300s and the D7000, they probably wouldn't be going to spend $500 on a prime lens (if they even knew what that was), let alone $2000 on some fast glass. . .
For me lenses are most important. you got to get a sharp lens with big front glass and big aperture f2.8 or less. specially above 50mm get as big aperture as possible like 'f1.2' 'f1.4' 'f1.8' 'f2.0' 'f2.8'. as for f5.6 and f6.3 are more than useless on focal lengths greater then 70mm unless you are doing macro work.
i would recommend these lenses if one wants to spend money as far as camera goes just buy any full frame from nikon d3,d3s or d700.
Nikon 50mm f/1.4G (Short Telephoto)
Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G (Wide Angle, Landscape)
Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G (Mid Zoom, Normal use)Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II (Telephoto)Nikon 85mm f/1.4D (Head Shots)
for 3rd party lenses i would not give any comment just go to shop with your camera take photo of same object with both lenses. if you do not feel any difference then go ahead and buy 3rd party. check on both extremes min and max aperture and min and max focal lengths total 4 shots per lens.
