Poon's Son

Postby gstark on Wed Aug 30, 2006 8:54 pm

Poon's son is now 5 months old, and the proud father has sent me this beautiful photo.

Image

But wait! There's more!
He has also sent me some good news regarding products: new, reduced prices on the D2Xs and D200, prices for the D80 (body and kit) and the 70-300VR.

New prices are now online.

We are also getting the long awaited Canon prices, so Canon members, there will be some good news for you too.

Regarding the D80, I not only have prices, we will be taking orders for these from tomorrow, for delivery in about two weeks. Poon is expecting stock next week, and you should consider being the first on your block to have one, because I think you'll agree that the prices will knock your socks off!

Nice Picture Mr Poon.
Interesting to see the D2Xs price coming down.
Wouldn't be clearing shelf space for the D3?
D300, D200, (D70 - now with daughter) and heaps of Nikon stuff.
