Well actually you can never have too many cameras, but this year I got too many of the same 2 cameras. I was given 4 D500's and 2 D5's this year by various clients and friends I have worked with this year. Even I don't like having too many of the same models so I gave away 2 of the D500's and a D5 to family members and one D500 to a local charity.

I kept one of each as I already had one of each model in inventory and thought it wouldn't hurt to keep a back up or lens holder of each one just in case.

Happy New Year, all.

I'd like to borrow one of the D500's to take photos with my new Hubble telescope.

You got one of those for Christmas too? Geez. It would be nice to get something original as a gift at least once.. lol

Mail order brides come with a bonus?

I pay for my own cameras.

I got a D5 from NPS to try and did not like it except for super high ISO shooting where she is second to none.

I bought a D500 with grip in May, a 200-500 I did not keep, a 300PF I love and use a lot and a 1.4/105E which I adore.

Now I am waiting for the next D8xx with D5/D500 genes....

I'm just trying to figure out what to do with the Koenigsegg, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bugatti and Ferrari I got for my birthday today.

It's like the Leaderboard: the thread will take on a life of it's own.

Well with Advanced Photo having been banned, and now with Desert Rose having been banned, I don't know what the TPF crowd is going to do for its daily dose of humble-brags.
