As you may have noticed from a few of my posts I am waiting for the Nikon D80 to get released to upgrade my D50 - I mentioned this on another Forum & have been offered a decent price for my D50 - "What's the problem?" I hear you ask ...
Well first of all Nikon have said "early Sept" for the D80 to arrive in the stores & we all know how reliable Nikon release dates are (?)
Secondly I wasn't going to mention this upgrade at all to my long suffering wife (I thought I could sneak it by her & hope she'd not notice! - Well they look identical :nono
Finally the prospective buyer would like the D50 straight away as he needs the camera for a particular shoot next week - This wouldn't be a problem except I am off (& wife) on a weeks holiday & she'd know something was iffy if I didn't take the camera with me :shrug:
So do I sell the D50 & pray that the D80 turns up before my holiday?
Do I come clean about the upgrade & hide all the sharp knives?
Renting a D-SLR is too expensive so unless someone here has a spare D50 I could borrow I appear to be up diahorrea drive :shrug:
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated ... Paul
