Default D200 arrived

got home from work this evening ate supper ,tried to find something on the tube ,then my wife says ,,,Oh yeah you got a package today!!!* Ripped into the box and there it was . I had a D200 and 18-200 vr on order for 6 wks . Finally gave up the wait and ordered* one with the* 18-70 kit lens on Wed morning. The salesman said it would get here next Mon or Tues but it showed up in 2 days.* Now the hard part,I have to work 12 hr shifts sat and Sun so it will be Mon before I can really start playing with my new toy/tool. I can already tell there is going to be a steep learning curve because this is my first DSLR.* *Just had to share before I head to bed.* Bob

Congratulations!

Definitely post some images and have some fun with the new DSLR.

Read the manual ... twice... I couldn't stress that enough.

LOL,,found a real excuse to take a day of vacation today . When the alarm went off at 5AM I stepped into a patch of wet carpet. My old waterbed sprung a horrible leak :. I have it drained now and am going to the furniture store later to buy a new bed. MMM,,,maybe I will find time later to play with my camera.* Bob

I say send it to me for the weekend to test it out for you. Then you won't be tempted to use it yourself. *

And you didn't know you had that letter opener in your pocket when you went to bed did you...

You didn't have to stab the waterbed to create an excuse to stay home so you could play with your new camera. LOL

Let's hope you don't have a 100 gallon aquarium when you get a new lens....

Talk about going to extremes!

Congratulations! You will LOVE this camera. The 18-200 Very Rare should also be on your list of must haves.
