Changed your mind, eh Laz? Or are you getting married or something...:-)

Hmmm.. After reading your response, the first thing that came to my mind was that bumper sticker that says:

"My wife said she'll divorce me if I don't get rid of my underwater photography equipment... Damn, I'm going to miss her!"


Didn't change my mind... Simply upgrading now before I get the underwater housing.

Upgrading to...? (merely curious)

[james]

My guess: Canon 20D...:-)

I said I was UPGRADING, James.. In other words -- an Olympus 5070!

BTW -- the Nikon D70 outfit is SOLD.

I still have the 70-180 Micro Nikkor lens available if anyone is interested.

OK, so D2x and 105mm Nikkor? 12-24DX? Or are you just upgrading your car or something... Or are you getting that male enhancement finally? :-)

I had noticed that there weren't any "UW" lenses in the for sale stock!

ROFLMAO! Nah... Medical science is light years behind from helping me with that whole male enhancement thing! :shock:

Unfortunately, I had to sell my D70 in order to afford the custom housing Ike is building me with a 4x eye-piece magnifier and a 15" dome for my state-of-the-art digital pinhole camera. I'm gonna rock with this new baby!

The reason I'm not selling the rest of my UW lenses is because I found out they make great magnifying lenses for burning leafs with the power of the sun. I'll be the king of the leaf burners in my block once again!

Booo...

[laz217]

hehehe... tough crowd!

James knows me too well (except for the male enhancement part!). I'm getting the Canon 20D. Not that the D70 is a bad camera (quite the contrary as it's been proven here) but simply because the 20D has a few extra features for long exposure sunrise shots that I can really use. And since I haven't invested money into glass (I don't have any UW lenses), it makes the switch a little easier for me.

Plus, honestly, it gives me an excuse to stall a little longer with having to purchase an underwater housing. My first lens is going to be the 100-400mm IS for shooting water birds. Does someone make a port for this lens?

[segal3]

Welcome to the club

[james]

I think Craig plans to shoot this lens underwater - LOL! No seriously, with a diopter - ask him about it.

Or maybe it's the 70-200 - yeah, that's it.
