Hmm, a flash vs. lens decision? that's new.
Well, what do you think you're going to get the most use out of? The 300mm sounds like an ok choice to shoot sports and large wildlife, though the flash could help you get better-lit images if you apply the proper technique in your portraits.

I suggest looking at This Site to see how flash might fit into your photography, and what's needed to get good results.

I have to take the view that only you can decide which will serve you best.

Take a serious look at what will make the biggest difference.

Flash makes a huge difference on portraits but so would the lens on sports. I would have to say it will be short for wildlife i think though unless you add a teleconverter.

300mmcwill be short for serious wildlife shooting, but 300 is a lot of reach for someone who doesn't want to stalk blue jays from 400 yards away. No offense to anyone that does that.. Haha

yer thanx guys you really helped
