I too have sat behind caravans eager to get past,watched "Top Gear" setting fire,blowing up and generally smashing them to bits and enjoyed every minute :naughty: But have to say when camping in the rain trying to set up or take down tent in the wind,or sat in morning in damp chair trying to...

Dare i say go mac!!!!Oh yes i can hear the boulders hitting me from here from pc users..But no virus scam calls from My home file.,,, OK i hide now,you guys battle on!

Yes were both very happy!Did give it time to try and master D2xs,just didnt happen for me,Clearly has first time round with Tirpitz:D. But he does have a D200 so menus half way there.Even dug my heels not to admit defeat, common sense ruled as D90 much more my in the middle level:thumbs:

Spot the dyslexic,Spelling never been my strong point as you can see:nuts:

Sorry title should say Months of batterling with D2xs,slippery didgets:nuts:

Struggled with my D2XS from day one.Got it 6 months ago and battled with vast array of menus.:bang: Tirpitz wanted it so did a deal,he got me new D90 in exchange for the D2xs.In great light the D2xs was spot on.Problem was i was moving up from a D40x so a beginners camera,so to jump to the D2xs...

Well deal has been done, im a proud new owner of a d2xs,picked it up today,and have to say been round house(weather rubbish outside)And totally happy with latest purchase! In fact i think iv fallen in love:love: Perfect arrangement,Hes a pro with a mac and im a apple fix and repair...

Spanishphil i can see were your coming from,my d40x is small in comparison ,but just dont want to pass up on opportunity of getting decent camera.Just found out tonight it has 31k shutter counts and been watching ebay and seen one go for £792 with 3500 shutter counts so this would put ball park...

He has got back to me.Has said hes not sure of price and difficult were friends involved,Asked me what price i had in mind and said checking on ebay.Iv been watching ebay for past few days and price does vary greatly depending on shutter count.Which iv asked him to check exif and let me know,He...

Well iv looked at his message again and its the d2xs which from what iv read not much different but will make it newer,so price i no doubt will be higher:eek:

Oh yes sorry my lost post was directed at Tirpitz as Mrs Tirpitz he would be trying to get his hands on it,if bought would be for me:thumbs: Hard luck tirpitz:razz: But thanks all for input and what a mixed bag of replies,some from d2x owners and some from d90. So all in a dizz:nuts:

You would be saying this of course as you couldnt have your Mrs having a better camera than you:razz: Iv sent him a message and asked how much he wants for it as all boils down to price at the end of the day.He is a pro so it will have alot of shutter counts onit so may reflect in his asking...

looked at price on dreaded flee bay and seems to swing in the same as d90:help::help: i spose it all depends on what price he offers me for his d2x.But must stress iv only looked around at price tonight and is open to being at right place at right time.:naughty:

well iancandler he had better hurry up as d90 replacement being launched i gather 18th of this month,hence my post will 2nd hand price drop due to being replaced,or will it rise due to being a icon,so should i go for d2x?Replacement is being launched in german photo fare along with 2 new...
