Beg Borrow Steel D3x

Postby agriffiths on Tue Sep 08, 2009 5:44 pm

Just wondering if anyone in Melbourne has a D3x body they could lend me for a day or two during the week? I know it's a big ask and I'd be happy to pay you for the lend.

As extra incentive, there's a free helicopter ride on offer for anyone who can help me out!

Thanks
Andrew

 LOL! Nice try guys :) . I'd be happy to arrange a discount flight on that basis ;).

I tried Methd but he's out of town for a few weeks. Aynone else? Maybe even a D700?

I've ordered one from Poon but that won't arrive in time.

Hi Mark,
Thanyou for the generous offer! Unfortunately the client has specifically requested the 24.5Mp image so I might have to pass on the D3.
However, if you're interested in a heli flight PM me and I'll sort something out for you.
Cheers
Andrew.

Both :) .

Unfortunately there won't be any room in the chopper on our photoshoot but I could probably arrange another flight for you.

We will be at the Sunbury show providing helicopter rides around Sunbury for $35. It's not too often you get a helicopter ride at that price! Feel ree to drop by and come for a ride.
