| ______________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:03am - the_reverend ""] that's not the "holy shit" part. I have a D2X and it does that. there are 2 things that it does that I want. 1) HSC mode mask. I always mess up framing to the bottom or the top of HSC cause of the lack of masking. 2) b/w mode other than that, the better battery life would be nice and the larger LCD would be cool. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:03am - succubus ""] that doesn't sound new, but i like the b&w function, longer battery life and the new options in gigh speed crop...that doesn't mean i'm buying it though.. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:03am - the_reverend ""] I also bought my D2X about a month or 2 ago |
| __________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:04am - succubus ""] yes aaron but you also new another version was coming out... |

| _________________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:18am - DreamingInExile ""] BTW Carina, you have a PM. you're looking at the D200, aren't you :P |
| __________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:30am - succubus ""] almost $5000...def not a d200... |
| __________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:37am - succubus ""] oh..i'm on text so i can't reply..but i will try and deposit it tonight! |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 11:40am - the_reverend ""] I heard rumors of this mostly after getting my camera. I just hope there is a firmware update. |

| _________________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 12:19pm - DreamingInExile ""] DAMN!!! Max. No. of shots: 60; Accelerated continuous shooting (8fps) at max. 38 shots when taking long exposures with noise reduction ON (approx. same rate when OFF) |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 1,2006 12:25pm - the_reverend ""] it's the HSC that I want though. I never use a lot of the buffer. if the hi-iso noise was reduced like they did between the D2H and D2hs, i'll be pissy then |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 2,2006 10:20am - the_reverend ""] great news carina...
