Hi Birddog,

you have quite a few Nikon digital cameras.
Would you like to tell use how old (young) they are and which ones you are still using.
Also do you have a camera or cameras for different purposes ?

Regards

CD,

Non digital: F90 = 1992/ F5= 1998
Digital: Heap of P&S/
D100 = 2/ 2003
D70 = 12/ 2004 - D2H 6/2004
D2x = 3/ 2005

All the above are still in my inventory

The D100 is my main back up unit, the D70 used for/ with an assistant, my kids or when I want to do a walk around and travel light, the D2h is the main rig, now the D2x will replace the seat of the D2h, the D2h will back to B/U body or shoot with second tripod and lens, the D100 still be used as a second back up, the D70 remains for the kids or travel light.
In shooting an event, I normally have two difference focal lenghts on each body, my assistant likes the D100 with the 24-120VR and he always prefered it. I used to have the D2h and the D70 around my neck when I'm do the real shooting, now I perhaps have three bodies with three difference lenses, so no more swapping lens on the run. :D

I am working at the moment, the word you must learn is "delegate". It gives you time to surf the web :D

Confirm me on the list, but as I have said before do not deliver the D2x to me untill I have paid you in full :wink:
