No more for tonight

I am a Nikon camera junkie from way back. I still have my 30-year old F2SB's (two of them) as well as about 20 lenses of various types (fisheye through 500MM -- extreme macro, pan and shift, bellows, microscope attachments, motorized copy stand, etc...) When I first read the reviews of the new Nikon D-90, I started salivating. Some serious salivating. I have their D1X pro model and love it and was looking at the D2Xs at some time down the road but the $2,500 price was a bit of a sticker shock. I knew that the D-90 was scheduled to be released now (at the end of the German Photokina show) but all of the online sellers were out of stock. (Beard & Hats and Glazers). I was in Costco today picking up a prescription for my Dad and took a look at their camera display. They had D-90's for sale. SWEET! I will be spending the next week or so getting to know this puppy a lot better. So far, it feels really nice in the hand, the controls seem very intuitive and looking forward to seeing some results.
