Re: Photography Thread
Justin I would rag you about your apparent new Canon point and shoot, but I live in a glass house.
So I will not rag you for your CAS.....My NAS went into hyperdrive last night. Ado put up another
D90 yesterday that was priced too low to leave alone....it was not in top condition, but as may be
apparent now to some, I am building a hedge against Nikon after the release of a 36 MP camera.
I have surrounded myself with bodies that are getting near what I consider a reasonable MPixel limit and
that all use the same battery. My embarassing collection of cameras now consists of EIGHT NIKON BODIES
that can all use the same battery. None of them are over 13 MP. It fits my idea of what a reasonable MPixel
limit is, as well as offering me total flexibility with power. While I would tolerate the 24 Mpixels of the D600,
the battery kills it for me. For an indefinite period of time, I can wall off progress and just take photos.
If a D200 or D90 dies, I have a sibling there to donate parts from should there be none available. From
what I hear, Nikon is no longer selling parts to repair dealers. Not sure if that is still true or not, but it
gives me pause. You have to send every repair that needs parts to Nikon. that is not WHY I have
2 D200s and 2 D90s, but its a comfort nonetheless.
