comments welcome, as always.

glad to see everyone seems to be doing well and shooting!

yeah so, real quick...
wanting to upgrade from my trusty D1x...i love it, but it lacks some sharpness. is a D90 the right direction? with grip.
$650 budget.

thanks!

Nice set! Wish you played more with the goggles.

Going from the d1x(professional setup and was pro when it first came out) to a d90 (upper end consumer) will feel weird. Being used to a pro body and "downgrading" may not be the best.

that's a good point, and the focus of my decision...im just feeling like for my budget, the D90 might be the best answer. going with a D200 would be a smaller step forward, and STILL not a probody (though alloy).
A D2x, although still a pro body seems like older tech, and out of my budget. id love a d7000 but again....1200 for body stifles me.

i dont know what i would miss from the pro body...sync port, sure. but i have cactus triggers that will offer the solution to that...so i really dont know. the d90 sensor seems sweet, the lcd is redonk, commander mode, bracketing, top display, dual wheels...

i think i should be fine with a consumer body...add a grip and i get my port shots and battery life...

am i making sense here, or am i blinded my MPs and sensors?
im only going to be able to do this once for a few years. i was kinda ruling out the d200, but if that makes more sense, by all means id love to save a buck and get one. adorama has nikon refurbed d90s for 649/body. seems decent to me.

id love further thoughts on this, as taxes come in a week, and i have a wedding in april i will want the upgrade for, so any advice is appreesh'd.

whattup tyler! long time no talkies...how goes it?
