Originally posted by bkpix Okay, my first mistake was buying an excellent quality used Nikon F-100, for a pittance.
(snip...)
The other temptation, of course, is the D700. I could have a film and digital system that used the same lenses (so long as I was willing to spend $2,700 for the privilege)...
That's what I did. I bought my D700 new for $2299 from Amazon last year, and my F100 for $60 from Craigslist.
I agree with B Grace's post - we talk about Pentax, Nikon, and Canon like we're talking sports teams, in reality they're just cameras. Use the one(s) that fit your need.
For example, I have a few Samsung flat panels. But I recently bought a Hitachi for a home office. Should I write a post about switching to Hitachi? You get the point...
