Wishlist Camera

Nikon D80 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera Kit with 18-55mm ED AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor LensIf you watch CSI, you will notice it is Nikon digital cameras that they use. All of the photographs you see displayed on this blog that were created by us in the last two years have been taken with the Nikon D50. The D80 is our wish list camera.

It was on a trip to Alaska that inspired us to get something more than a point and shoot camera. We took a point and shoot on the trip to Morocco and kept leaving it places. It was only through sheer luck and a fellow traveler who lived within driving distance of my brother that got that camera back to us.

I started with a Konica and a Leica SLR back in the late Sixties but once Nikon came into the picture it has been a fight between their SLR and the Elf point and shoot. For quality, it certainly is the Nikon, hands down.

These are not the opinion of a professional photographer, but of someone who took over a thousand photos in ten days along the coast of Alaska and up into the Yukon. Even with the 4Gig memory card, I still downloaded onto my laptop's auxiliary drive.
