Sounds great. Might be seriously looking to get this camera after previously owning a Nikon D100, which I might just sell. But I LOVE the Nikon D100, after getting into digital photography with the piece of crap Nikon Coolpix 950 I still own. I still use this camera for timelapse photography since my Harbortronics Digisnap only works with this camera. I still remember paying like $300 for a 256MB card.
But yeah, like I was saying before, moving from the 950 to the D100 was a frickin' big leap in every possible way (build, speed, image quality, etc, etc.). I'm terribly impressed by my D100, and I feel I have been stricken with the digital camera bug.
If you're planning on getting this camera, please provide your reviews or some samples, please share! I'd love to see them.
