I have one of my camera's up for sale. Original cost was $960 with all the lenses, etc. It's a steal.

And if you think I'm obsessed with detailing automobiles, you should see the condition of my cameras and lense.

No doubt it will be a good buy. Bought my wife a Nikon S50 a few months ago but she still makes me take the pics.

Nah, I got a D200 pretty cheap a few months ago

The D70s and D200 is all I need right now. I was using the Canon G6 strictly for wide angle shots for montage backgrounds. I haven't used it in about 6 months now.

S50 or D50?
I still own my D50 with over 20000 shots now

regards

There is nothing like a nikon

Very cool photos! What was your exposure on the last one? What was the f stop of the lens?

Here is one of mine from Sunday's shoot (no post processing, straight from the camera):

Nice pic Ramsey. Was this a portrait job you did for someone or is this your line of work?

Those pics you see in Sports Illustrated are not straight from the flash card, they're always post-processed, according to my mentor who worked for them in the late 80's early 90's.

I do some post processing (usually color saturation and contrast tweaking)on the good action shots that we print and display for our picture booth. There are usually 5 or 6 that we pick out week to week for display. This one above will be used as a 16x20 display when we go to that particular teams home field in 2 weeks.
