I have wanted to get a new camera for a long time. My little 2 pixel Fuji has been great but was definitely ready for retirement. My preference was for a SLR digital, deciding whether to get a Canon or a Nikon was the difficult part. For several reasons I decided on a Nikon: my daughter loves hers, plus I have several lens and other accessories from an old film Nikon that could be used with a new one. So, I now have a Nikon D5000 and the quality of the pictures I have taken so far, compared to the Fuji, is amazing. Now, what on earth in an F-stop...photography class anyone?
Two sources I found helpful in making this purchase were:
Kenrockwell.com A good information source on all things related to photography.
Crispdeals.com/ An online store; easy to deal with; delivery on time; good prices and on this item no delivery charges or sales tax.
I think you will really enjoy using your new Nikon. I know I do! :)
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of that camera. I'm turning about around the edges....enjoy and thanks for the visit.

Hello, Adrienne -
ReplyDeleteThis is the 'other' Adrienne - just visiting your blog for the first time. I'm a bit jealous of your new camera since I've had my eye on that very one but can't justify the cost since I upgraded to another DSLR just a couple of years ago. I'll be back to see what your new camera finds to share with us.
