Thanks for your replies. I will check it out. I have rented a camper van for two weeks. That makes it easier to get around and it's a good place to put my one year old twin girls in :-).

Just sold my 16mm and got a Sigma 15mm. Problem solved, I hope.

Ive actually considered the D7000. It seems like it could be a nice underwater camera. 10-17 and all

Understandable. I have a D700 including the 14-24 and 16-35. That camera is so good. My only regret is that I didn't get a housing for it earlier. I still remember your and Alex's comments when the D3 was introduced. Look at what Alex is using now .

I am witching to full-frame. I am really impressed by the wide-angle performance of my new lenses on the D700. I am ready for the D800 with these lenses. Let's hope Nikon will introduce a fish eye zoom similar to what Canon has introduced. The D2x can stay as macro rig; and I am planning to do as little macro as possible the next few year.

Well, i dont want to be too demanding, but i do agree with you   I dont think mine ever leaves 100. It's basically a 1 ISO setting camera

Do you still remember the moment that you got the D2x out of its box? Now even a D7000 consumer camera is better in every aspect (except for the viewfinder).

I dont really care about video either, but Im really disliking the high ISO performance of the D2x. And by saying high, im being really nice to Nikon I think the D2x is useless above 400. I regularly wish I could use 800, 1600 or even more. D700 would be nice, but Nikon took so long to get a replacement, im really hesitant to buy a new D700. Wish I had done that 3 years ago.

Wow Cor, that is too much credit for the D2X. I am not using mine above ISO 160. Don't get me wrong; it's a great camera. But I am only using it between 100-160 ISO. It will at leat take another year before a housing will be on the market.

I have decided to get a D700 housing and sell it as soon as the D800 housing is on the market. My Next years' projects need a high ISO camera.
