Tested my cameras weatherproofing today :D

Well, my camera got a bit wet today take one naked baby, a muppet who has camera right next to the posing bean bag,and a tiny bladder. You would think that considering I've had my own kids, and photographed several babies, that I would not be so dumb

Bless him, he looked much happier after he had done the deed, and it was a most impressive arch of pee.

Camera and lens both fine,Nikon can now add it to their advertising will withstand baby pee

I always said Nikon took the piss

Oi! I have to stick up for Nikon now though secretly, I will always be an Oly girl

I was impressed, with how it repelled the pee though a friend has just reminded me on FB, that her daughter vomited all over the hospital tog and his camera when she was born. Now, that is bad

Oi you a Nikonite now you sure have taken to it like a duck to water

The pro Nikons are renowned for their professional bodies

Perhaps Nikon test them for peeing babies xx

I'm not one of these brand people and can honestly say that I do like Nikon lol

I've a Canon just now but for no reason other than - when I moved on from my Nikon D50 I felt the Canon 40D was better value than the Nikon D300.

Was it the right choice ?

Doesn't really matter as I've yet to splash out on 'decent' lenses.

I'm now at the point where I think lenses are the next step and I consider these a long term investment so (all things considered) the 40D body I have isn't really that important.

Canon L glass is where I really want to go but at the moment I fany a Nikon body.

Ho hum.....

I will always have a soft spot for Olympus but I do love my D300. But, like you I am after really good glass now, but it so scary in price, but I can't see me switching brands, so as long as I can use it on Full Frame when the time comes, it will be worth the initial outlay.

That's my thinking - whichever route i go down - buy glass that's suitable for FF

Top quality Canon L glass is all EF which works with cropped or ff sensors but they keep throwing in very attractive EF-S lenses which are great value for money but not full frame.

I understand life was simpler with my Olympus, not so much choice or availability


Have you noticed, how we can change the subject in any thread

Though lenses seem to hold their value suprisingly well - I know as I am trying to buy a second hand lens and the prices aren't falling that much short of some of the cheapest new prices.

Are you doing professional portrait work now Suzette?
