My big camera’s back from the shop…. and the hot shoe is still malfunctioning…

This supports my theory that people don’t READ anymore… (The documentation I sent in with the camera was extensive… but if you didn’t pay attention to it and just ran standard bench tests – I’m sure the camera would check out just fine).

I “had” ordered the new R1 that’s coming out…. But the botched repair, (three weeks down for what?!?!)… and the overall lack-fucking-luster performance of the F828 before malfunctioning has finally made me snap and cancel my order… I’m an ass for ever getting rid of my old F717 which was really a great little system.

Nikon – honey! I’m comin’ home.

That’s all I shot with in the days before digital… I still miss my old F4….

The rig I have my eyes on isn’t out yet – but for tax purposes I’ll probably head in to the local camera shop and slap down the Gs and pre-order before the new year.

At least Chad was happy that the camera was back… He spent yesterday afternoon hanging out with the cats doing some more of his amazing candid shots beneath the tree.

Meanwhile – I’m not blogging… I’m still reading D200 reviews and shopping lenses.
