the big decision

[AD_Capturs]

Ok so today I was walking past jessops and decided to POP in. After looking around at the Canon stuff I decided to pick up a nikon and have a play even though I'm a Canon man (sorry Canon guys) I ended up walking out with a nikon D300S, 16-85 and a sb 900... Whoops.

Haha I did but when it came to a few pence short of £2000 I wish I did run out lol. Good job they didn't have a D700 in stock.

enjoy the new gear, and dont try a d700 and you will be fine, and the darkside always comes out tops in the end(the force is strong)

I'm sure a D700 will be in my bag soon but this d300s is confusing enough.

both amazing cameras.

Not used to having a camera with this many buttons on it lol.

 

[simonblue]

Good choice,you can add an D700 later

Great choice on the lens, I've had one since I brought my D300, sharp as a pin.

Glad you got a flash and didnt try to put your Nissin 866 on it. You really wouldn't want to fry either the cam or the flash on the first try. Lol.

You might want to check out the [thread=188207]owners thread[/thread] for tips on what all those strange new buttons do.

Bet the Jessops salesman had as big a grin on his face as you did.

Lol I would have been gutted if I had tried and broke either.

Will do thanks.

Yeah they did lol I'm guessing they work on commission and when I was just looking at a lens he wasn't very helpful but once I started to look at bodies and flash and then said I wanted all 3 he couldn't do enough for me.

So, are you going to update your TP camera bag profile to reflect your new Dark Side allegiance, or are you planning on trading it in for a 7D?

 

[straycat]

Good man,let's see some images.

Buying a [thread=336947]TP-branded Opt-Tech pro loop strap[/thread] for your new shiney may help reduce the symptoms for a bit.

Ah, now I see why you were asking about trigger's for Nikon or Canon Congrats on your purchase. Good to see you thinking of going OCF this early. If you still want the trigger, you know what to do.
