Post new camera = new pics
so, like a moron I dropped my camera and had to get a new one. I haven't gotten many good pics yet but I kind of like this one and will be adding to this thread if I get other good ones. For now I'm trying to get situated with the standard white background catalog type...

I just bought a new camera too, mine got swiped a couple weeks ago. Would love to have a Nikon D300 but it's a little out of my price range.

Oh yeah, let's see more toys!

This section would help us collectors a lot. Specially on basic photography.

ugh, my wife wants one of these. I just googled for some prices, ouch. I'm sure it's an incredible piece of equipment, but I think the new camera will have to wait till after SDCC. Like Xmas.

Great pic. You can see every detail.
Look forward to seeing what you can do with that technology.

Nice pic AND nice camera.

I have to give the edge to Nikon over Cannon because of Nikon's lenses. But a Nikon or a Cannon or most any other camera should allow you to take great toy shots if you know how to use it.

That cam is one of the new ones with the CMOS rather than CCD sensors, right?
Want one, but will wait a bit.

I'm not really sure. I have a lot of learning to do to make me feel less guilty about getting a camera way out of my league. I'm still having problems with White Balance consistency so I took it outside for a few shots.

Nice! I almost got the D5000 but opted for the D90 at the last minute. Just got it about a week ago. they have the same guts; the D5000 adds the swivel screen & drops a few other features and makes much more sense economically. I went with the D90 in the end mostly because of the kit lens.

obviously you have some idea about how to use it, because you're getting much better pics than I am!

thanks guys

vog, I originally got the D60 but then found out it didn't have video or live view which I had been used to for years. I felt kind of naked without LV so I exchanged the camera which is why I ended up with the d5000. I really would have preferred to save the money on those extras but I had to have them. You will be happy with your d90, like you mentioned, they are very similar.

Looks like you're getting used to the camera cause your pics are coming out quite nicely.
