Nikon Fest

Well Craig got back from Singapore today and has brought one of our colleagues into the Nikon fold with a brand new D90. Just holding it and having a look I'm pretty impressed at that price point. He also came back with a new acquisition of his own and I happened to have the D300 on my desk. So what do you do when you have 4 Nikons and Canon sitting around? You point the odd one out at the rest!

The shot was actually Craig's handiwork, but he's a tad jet lagged so I got posting duties!

Congrats on the D90 - I just bought one aswell. Still busy playing with all the features although I am very impressed with the build quality and ease of use. :D

Edit - you definately need these nice cameras with such a nice view of the our harbour. :)

Haha, Dawesy and I don't get a window we are in a little box, called an IT office. (sic).

That is actually the view from the kitchen, but the majority of the office have desks with a view of one variety or another, IT lucked out. :) (no we aren't bitter :shock:)

No bitterness at all. Hey, at least you got a whole desk...
