Description


Last Saturday, marks the end of my Nikon D70. I said a happy goodbye, after it decided to fail me 5 minutes into taking pictures at the Minnesota Zoo last Saturday. The monkeys were being SO cute, too, when the stupid thing malfunctioned. I was close to throwing it against the wall - I was so frustrated. I did take pictures with my cell phone though. Woo Hoo lol But, I had a plan .. when I got home, I was going to go all out and buy the D200. With last years bonus still just sitting in the bank lookin' pretty, and doing nothing, I figured what the heck. I was told by many that the lenses for my D70 would all work with any Nikon upgrade. So, all I needed was a new body. (Turns out my macro lens and portrait lenses do not work with it, so don't believe it.) I was surprised to discover the D200 was hard to find! Nobody sold them! Well, determined to get SOMETHING that day ... I walked into a camera shop and spoke to a guy there - and he introduced me to the D90. Said it pretty much does all a 200 does and is just as nice, but less expensive. He talked me into it, and I have to say, I have a lot to learn with this D90; but already I've decided I love it much more than I ever did the D70. This photo was taken just the other day at Maria State Park .... D90 style. Thanks for stopping by.... Shari ***************************************************************** Thank you for your kind comments and Fav on my previous upload!!: "Happy birthday Denise!"

Fantastic! Stellar clarity, reflections and composition, Sharilyn! Difficult to believe you got such a sharp photo with just a cell phone camera, but you did it. And, your D70 served you well. I hope you gave it a proper burial.

Congratulatons on The D90 purchase,I use the D90 as well,and it is a very capable camera, one thing I did find out after I made the purchase is that this particular camera is no good for shooting color Infrared images,so I was extremely dissappointed............
