speaking of nikons I dont know how good the d90 is,

I was strolling through the store today and played around with some nikons picked them up and played around with the rebels. and I found that I liked the feel of the canons more. Much more comfortable for my fingers to reach the adjustments. The nikons, I couldnt help but feel like they were too small or my hands were too large to comfortably adjust the manual settings.

seems like nikons are priced like 20% cheaper than the canons too.

glad I went with the canon though feels much more natural working with it

Both are really great companies... Nikon has excellent optics, my buddy has a D50 and a D70... I've had my Canon for almost 10 years and dragged it around the world almost - a few times... I still use it to this day (3.2MP S30 "Point & Shoot") I posted the pictures it took here (Yes, I know it's a SLR thread)... I'm really overdue for a new camera and I'm also looking at the Canon Rebel... Next thing on my list to buy ...

We had to put my boyfriends 16 year old chowchow mix to sleep about a year ago. She got a tumor in her shoulder bone & it grew so quickly that it broke the bone. They said the only optional operation was to amputate & it was about $2k, we opted for putting her to sleep because at 16, we doubt she would've lived much longer & his family just didn't want to dish out $2k on something where she would have to re-learn how to walk since she'd be a 3-legged doggy.

Ok for anybody that needs a crap talking translation for me and flint talking to each other (cause we actually think each other is cool, but won't admit it cause we love to talk crap to each other), here is the translation.


Elijahtc:
Flint, I can't wait to see what u produce with ur new camera. If u need any help learning how to use it let me know and I'd be glad to answer any questions u might have. Welcome to the EOS Squad bro!


Flint:
thanks man I know I'm gonna have some questions and will definitely hit u up for the answers. I think the EOS squad is cool, can't wait to join u guys. Nikons suck!!! Oh and I think Don might be a little fruity cause both his wrists are limp.
