nikon d90 & other photography *wants*
aaaaand I think I know what I want my new camera to be – not sure when I’ll be able to afford it. It would rock if I could have a new camera by the wedding I’m shooting on September 12 in Pittsburgh…. but it’s doubtful. Beyond Megapixels also did a nice sum-up of the new camera, plus a link to an AWESOME video where Chase Jarvis and crew are testing it out!


- 12.3-megapixel DX-format CMOS imaging sensor
- 5.8x AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR lens included
- D-Movie Mode Cinematic 24fps HD with sound (WHAT??!!!)
- 3-inch super-density 920,000-dot color LCD monitor
- Capture images to SD/SDHC memory cards (not included)
Also, I’m pining after these lenses.
Come on, we all need a zoom lens. (This is updated from before as I read this is a much better lens/deal)

Nikon 50mm f/1.4D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
I see the most amazing pictures taken with this lens, beautiful shallow depth of field.
(Edit: I ended up purchasing the much cheaper and just as good, slightly different 50mm 1.8d - i love it!!!)

Who knows. Maybe it’s just a dream. Aaaaah….
And…. I’d love a shootsac. with a gorgeous cover.

Edit – or maybe one of these? A nice, half the price alternative. If you need a really big bag. I think I found something pretty small I can use in the meantime.
Danielle showed me kaboodle like 2 years ago, and I still use it. If you are looking for a place to store cool things you’ve found to buy, or want, or just make a dream wish list for “if i had a million dollars” kaboodle is for you. I have used it for a long time and I make tons of lists, things I need, I have a computer and photography category, home, health and beauty, media – books, music, and gifts for others, etc. It’s awesome! Check it out.
Here’s my crazy list if you care.
I'd love it if you subscribed to my RSS feed.

You’re jumping ship!!! Aren’t you a Canon user?!
Ah, well. If there’s a camera that’s going to make me jump ship, it’s that one. Or the D700. Either one is fine. (Hear that, Santa?) Wouldn’t that be double the expenses though as you’ll have to have a set of lenses for each brand?
I’d settle for a 50D (although it’s more expensive than the D90). Hopefully, I’ll be able to afford it before they replace it with a 60D. Haha.
