bushpig 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 As I said, I'm a bit screwed for time. If I wait, then I may have to pay the Aus price, which will likely rule me out. Link to post Share on other sites

Kumapix 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Author Share Posted September 13, 2007 the longer you wait the lower the price. the only possible problem could be a shortage (like the 18-200 had) btw my camera guy is calling me today with d200 prices Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Yeah.... Nice one BP. Go for it. Go for it. Go for it. Go for it. Actually read quite a few reviews on the local rags here, they just went through all the new fetures but didn't find/mention anything bad. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 yep, the time issue is my concern kuma and the reason I may just bite the bullet and get the first release. Let me know about those prices kuma Although it would have to be pretty cheap to talk me back down now Thursday, the reviews I have read all sound very good, but everyone is still reserving judgement for when it actually gets put to real use. I think it will be pretty darn good though. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I wish I was in your position, about to buy the D300...... Nah, no I don't. I've got my LOVELY D200 Link to post Share on other sites

AK 77 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Originally Posted By: Fattwins How much are you going to sell the d70 for? Oi! I asked first, about a month ago!

PS> People should read what Ken Rockwell says in his reviews - the D40 and D50 are both better cameras than the D70! So why am i interested - I want one of these already out of date cameras because it has a peculiar feature of being able to flash sync at high speeds - for daylight fill flash using powerful off-camera strobes for daytime skateboard photos - which is actually a result of it's cheaper cost-cutting design having an electronic shutter at high speeds simply turning off the ccd, instead of the mechanical shutter actually closing.

soubriquet 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 You'd be welcome Domokun. First, get yourself an ace lady... The view is much nicer in winter when it's under 6 metres of snow. Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Hey smartarse The winter pic is just up the road in Yamagata. It's the only place in Japan devoid of powerlines. Your view may be better than mine but it's better than Tokyo or Rondon :finger: Link to post Share on other sites
AK 77 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Smartarse? well hello Mr Pot I am a big fan of Tohoku. London might afford a nice view... if you were on ten times my current salary! But mountains always win. >Thursday; well, why not just put them in this thread, they are more photographic than most of the things on this thread (despite Kuma's SNOW pics / info despairing requests!)

thursday 1 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 yeah, considering Kuma's requests, I hesitate with my non snow views. Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 My school view is pretty good I stare at jonan all day. I just wondered what the price of the camera would be to consider a possible buy. I was not that interested more interested to understand the value. Link to post Share on other sites
