I'm not disputing that, but the pay is super and the vast array of Nikkors
and other Nikon equipment are great perks.

if your images are anything to go by, you would probably be just as happy
with a camera phone :-)

Wait till I get a Nikon mount adapter for my camera phone and attach the
500/4 to it. Look out baby! We be talking an effective focal length of
5,500mm!!!!

Cool! If you tried the Nikon D3 you would consider those Canon point
and
shoots, or anything else from Canon, akin and as primitive as rubbing
two
sticks together to produce fire.

Rita, paid shill for Nikon, probably because they could only fool an
idiot
to actually shill for them.


I'm pretty sure if Nikon did pay anyone to puff their products they'd
pay a photographer. In fact, looking at the random edition of Nikon Pro
magazine beside me, they do.

are you implying that Rita isn't a photographer ??


Yes.

Now I'm stating that Rita isn't a photographer.

No, absolutely no troll intended dude. I'm just amazed what I can do with a
$200 camera these days-- even a $125 one up close and in good light...

While they're obviously not the top dogs of the digital camera pack, it
*is* truly astounding what some of them can do, innit? Let's hear it for
the wonderful *range* of gear that's available today, which makes it
possible for just about everybody to find and enjoy hardware that suits
his or her needs, regardless of where on the spectrum they fall.


Hello, Blinky:

I concur! Neither snobs, nor jaded techno-freaks, need apply, anymore. g

Hello, J.H.:

So very true. Today, there are even some decent "point and shoot" digicams,
priced well below $100 USD.
