Excellent news Glen - have a great Christmas testing out that beautiful VR lens of yours

Cheers,

Thanks guys, cant wait to test out the 70-200VR Terri has hidden somewhere and the 45P and the Gitzo (scheduled also for tomorrow).

Funny thing is 6 months ago I hadn't used my Nikon SLR for a year, now when my Nikon DSLR is missing in action for 2.5 weeks I feel it is about time to get a second body!!

Yay Glen, you got your Xmas miracle!

Pu that 70-200 and TC17 to good use.

Did they tell you what went wrong or what they changed/fixed/replaced on your cam?

........... the D2H is coming down .............

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 3:28 pm**

Damn !!!

And I was just getting ready to suggest that I borrow all your poor dusty lenses over the xmas break!!!

mmm... oh well...

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 3:38 pm**

MJ, take the big russian for a date over the break

Jordan, I think the pick for me will be the D100 replacement. Then I might be able to get a shot good enough to fly to a town far away and burgle a printer :wink:

Onyx, didn't tell me what was wrong yet, preliminary call as a favour to me, could have picked it up this afternoon but a bit on

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 4:14 pm**

I better get your 50 1.8 back to you then....

Oh, tha's right you have a new 70 - 200VR to open, you won't be using any other glass for a while

Glen!!!!

That’s the best news I’ve heard all day mate.
I know what you’ll be doing over the next week or so :wink:

Cheers

Ray,

you are spot on, Christmas will break over me like a slow wave over the next few days, D70 back tomorrow, new Gitzo 1348 tomorrow, Christmas Day hands on the 70-200 & 45P 2.8. First time I have looked forward to Christmas for years

Just have to restrain myself from visiting Birddy in the middle and picking up something wide angle
