[Harv]

Oooooooooooo...... look at all those goodies. Enjoy.

[Kevin]

Boy, they sure do stack nicely, huh? ;)

[Rudi]

Congratulations Randy! Looks good. :D

[GBRandy]

Man Ihave alot to learn.....One thing I noticed is how absolutely spotless the lenses are. Every lens I have purchased from Nikon in the past 16 months have had dust in them (expcet the 70-200). Every one of these is crystal clear....hummmm

Daughters gymnastics meet on Sunday should be intersting this week :)

[Rudi]

I wouldn't read too much significance into that, Randy. Some of my lenses had dust in them when new, but as long as they're sharp, I could not care less. :D

Oh I know...I know...but still, getting 4 new ones without a spec after my 4 Nikkor ones that had some was a pleasant surprise.

Congrats Randy. If you don't have room on your desk, we'll be glad to accommodate you:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

I love the willingness of others to help around here....somehow I found enough room! But I will keep that offer in mind!

Congrats on all the new toys Randy..

[GBRandy]

Thanks Jeff. Alot of this is your fault you know!

[Keith]

Congrats Randy, what a purchase bouncy; Now you cant blame the equipment no more, no pressure buddy. Sincerely congrats!

I did get a 300mm f2.8 IS, now I have to wait patiently for shipment, its all Harvs fault! rolleyes; :D

[Kevin]

I think we need to find a shrink to become a member. (s)He can help us all out with our addictions! Can't believe you got yourself a 300......BASTARD, as you'd say! ;)

[EV Wonder]

Congratulations Randy!! Now pass me a kleenex, I'm beginning to drool. rolleyes;

[GBRandy]

Huh? Are you implying we have have a problem here? I'm fine....No help needed here. (I am in denial...leave me alone)

Besides, I know two Psychologists, and I know this will sound funny, but they are completely nuts. :p

[Kevin]

Sorry Randy, my bastard comment was to Keith, not you.

But yes, I'm afraid we have a problem. Just think how much money has been spent here just in the last week or so. :swoon:

[RikWriter]

Wow...now THAT is a boatload of pesos there. That 300 is one nice lens, I tell ya...I sometimes wish I had it back. Just didn't use it often enough to leave $3800 laying around in my backpack.

[Ellen]

Canon must love you guys, when they see you coming they rub there hands together.

[GBRandy]

Sorry Randy, my bastard comment was to Keith, not you.


Oh gosh I didn't think that comment was at me...I am not that smart :)

[GBRandy]

Canon must love you guys, when they see you coming they rub there hands together.

Yes! But imagine how Nikon feels right now...I was in that camp for 25 years until about 4:00 this afternoon.

[chezem]

What a nice setup. The 300 and the D1 n. To die for.

[GBRandy]

Funny, i was laying in bed last night going....oh crap...I can't blame the camera anymore....now what!??

A 300 f2.8 IS......sweet....when does it arrive?

[David Cramer]

Of course all of us shrinks are nuts! You don't think a sane person would become a psychologist, do you?LOL;

Nice setup Randy. I'm looking forward to you upcoming shots.

[retief]

Well, I'm glad I saw this. I mean, for crying out loud, Canon can't even put the lid on the Lens Trunk in the correct orientation. I mean Nikon got it right. Just like the way you turn the lens to put it on and focus ;) You Canon folks are just plain backwards, probably drive funny too :biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Hey, Randy, now you have a whole 2 days to get familiar prior to Sunday. I expect a few thousand shots by then, eh?????

Good luck, and remember, you can still use Capture NX after you do the RAW conversion ..... :biggrin:

[RLJSlick]

Now GBRandy that is great setup!!! Congrats!!!
