    Default I got it!!!!

    Alright. I finally did it. We had some extra money saved and we (hubby and I) both agreed it was time.

    With a lot of searching and discussing I chose a camera that would best suit my needs right now. I'm no professional national geographic photographer so don't need that high end one, but I want to still get a base I can grow with.

    Soooo..I purchased the D300S today. Got a lens too but it's the 18-200 to replace the 18-135 that is slowly dying into despair. Time to start saving for lens now..

    All I have to say is...what an expensive hobby that now has to start paying for itself (or so says my hubby)


    Now to sit here and wait a week till I get the camera..lol.
