But the replacement was a reconditioned one and carried no guarantee (since the first one was at the end of its guarantee). So I had to haul out my little Nikon Coolpix, the one I had to buy at an exorbitant price to have a camera to take pictures in Yosemite. Both have some flapdoodle special features, but the feature I like best is the automatic setting!Jerry and Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01381487159402842587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-63473764013480087472013-06-24T09:56:49.361-04:002013-06-24T09:56:49.361-04:00How nice to buy yourself a new camera gift.

AND I was in Europe, so it had to come here to Mississauga. grrrr.<br />Then they wanted a hundred bucks to ship it back to me! Luckily, one of our daughters was coming over and she brought it back. It still seems like the sensor is "off", but I've adjusted the sensitivity to compensate.<br />I would NEVER have the patience to continuously retouch photos. What you see is what you get. <br />At least with the Nikons, all the lenses fit. Of course, I have a lens from an older F70 (film) and it fits, but just doesn't "talk" to the body. So I have to manually focus that one. Still works.<br />One fine day, I may need to go shopping....<br />Good luck with the new one.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-38608771785785286302013-06-24T07:55:44.626-04:002013-06-24T07:55:44.626-04:00Your pictures are always so outstanding.

And, the macros are SO much better!!!! One time, during Thanksgiving, the hubbs and I were at Mammoth. I went out early in the morning to see the new snowfall (it snowed the previous night)...and went crunch, crunch, crunch in the snow, came inside the cabin, walked on the slick lineoleum kitchen floor, and my beloved Nikon went SPLAT on the floor (me, too!). I went facedown and landed on my nose and all I could scream was, "My camera, my camera!" Turns out, my fall shattered the viewfinder, but hubby sent it in and $240 later, I had a new one. There is NO WAY I will EVER give up this camera! I take her everywhere with me, as my backup camera.<br />~~Cheryl Ann~ But, I'm glad you got a new body! I'm like you...I don't need a lot of bells and whistles!trav4adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411656522344925200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-45072261804680317782013-06-23T23:53:25.231-04:002013-06-23T23:53:25.231-04:00Fingers crossed they find out what is wrong with K...Fingers crossed they find out what is wrong with Kelly and that it is easily treatable, or that it will eventually go away on it's own.<br /><br />Please let us know as soon as you can.

My wife says the same. I love the D-7100, but am glad I have the D-50 with me. Lighter and I know how to operate it better.<br />The D-7100 has a sensor cleaner that keeps it clean. No idea how it works, perhaps like a windshield washer. Probably part of what makes it so heavy.<br />We were overcast tonight for the MoonZippyPinHeadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01744888611143753611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-63984358218991252572013-06-23T23:10:44.523-04:002013-06-23T23:10:44.523-04:00Colors seem more vivid....
