Is the bird flu same as the D2x flu?

[birddog114]

Another new "victim" of the D2x flu

Congrats. Oneputt with his new acquisition of the new D2x.
Charge it up and shoot free.

Member of D2 family now is growing up across all other regions.

Congrats Oneputt - maybe we will see some better pics now

[MCWB]

D2X lust and subsequent purchase may enrage the other half; lengthy hospitalisation may be required. It's rarely fatal, but it sure is spreading!

[Oneputt]

I think that this stupid grin may be hard to remove from my face

[Michael]

Best get a move on and replace that D70 bit in your signature with your new arrival.

It is fatal if you happen to drop one on your head

[marcotrov]

Congrats Oneputt. I am, and I suspect I'm not alone, quite green with the ol' envy. More 'brownie points' needed before i attempt to even dream about it!
I'm sure we are going to see some great images with it. Enjoy!!
cheers

If you need a hand, just let me know

Sure is. I'm predicting a pandemic.

Hi
I know that the flu is spreading, I tried to control it, I only need a D2X to complete my homeloan debt, after that I may have the flu...
OnePutt, enjoy your new camera

Spada

Spada,
The D2x flu is just a breeze in your passion and the homeloan debt is your "Death sentence" or "Life sentence", they won't match to each other.

[Heath Bennett]

Co-incidentially, upon deconstructing the word 'mortgauge' we find the words 'mort' (death) and 'gauge'. This pretty much means a death sentence Birdy

[LostDingo]

even after you have acquired the D2X flu the only cure may be a dose of 2.8 lenses and or 200-400 VR's to lower the temp!

It's true! a Fresh baked Nikkor 200VR f.2 or 300VR/ f2.8 is the supplement vitamin to the cure after well treatment of the flu

[Heath Bennett]

For dreaming sake Birdy, for I have caught a bad strain of the D2x virus, how much for the 200/2 VR?

[birddog114]

For dreaming sake Birdy, for I have caught a bad strain of the D2x virus, how much for the 200/2 VR?

Just a small portion, It's 4/5 of the D2x.

[Heath Bennett]

Definately dream territory. Thanks

[Oneputt]

Bugger...............just realised that I now need much bigger cards About four times bigger than the D70

[LostDingo]

hahahah......that D2X raw files really eats up the space....I'll tell you what Birdie first suggested to me

"Paul..........you need 4 x 4gb flash cards when you have D2x"

[birddog114]

Yes, It's true gentlemen!
It's time to retire all your 1Gb CF card and replacing with the 2Gb or 4Gb.
The unforseen of the damages with the flu!!!!!
And then, what's next?

[birddog114]

Gentlemen!
Another new "victim" of this flu/ lust disease after a full medical check by his banker and he'll admit himself to the D2 family and this board very soon.

[Glen]

Birddy this is really catching, I am going to keep away from you guys, Terri will have me for breakfast if I get it this month

[birddog114]

Yes, it's a danger sign! within few days, 6 "victims" gone thru this lust disease.
Who's next? any vaccination is available?

[BBJ]

What is the file size of a RAW file, i know my mate who uses canon only shoot jpeg as he said a RAW file on his is like 35meg.

[birddog114]

20Mb full RAW file.

[BBJ]

Thanks Birdy, yeh well that would give the old puter a bit to work out, well maybe shooting Jpeg would be the go and what the size of jpg then 6 megish maybe?

Well i think when i get 1 i might be using high speed crop, LOL as we all know i am shutter happy and RAW well who knows.LOL Or maybe i will have to become more selective with my shots.

[MCWB]

Oh well, next month then!

With 4Gb cards, then you'll be safely to shoot.
Transferring to your PSD won't much help with the file size of the D2x in full RAW (20Mb/ea).

[birddog114]

Terri will have me for breakfast if I get it this month

Oh well, next month then!

Glen,
Just another ten days, it's not far!

[glamy]

Glen,
I thought you would enjoy your wife having you for breakfast every day!
Cheers,

I think the D2X flu is what you get when you don't own a D2X. Symptoms include turning green and drooling a lot .........
