Since I can't stand the 'new' rear lens caps Nikon is putting out, I'm hoarding the old style. Got 20 of 'em in the mail today.

Now you've got to go buy 20 lenses to put these on! ;) In all seriousness, I bought a couple of the new rear caps expecting them to be a whole lot better, but like you, I still prefer the old ones. Did all of these come from the same place?

A used Gitzo 1220 aluminum tripod arrived today. I bought it for $100 USD shipped which included the original box. I'll be using it as my dedicated video tripod.

These Gitzo tripods are just too awesome and are built to last a lifetime. :D

*Shhhhh... It's a surprise*

I bought a D5300 for the girlfriend, but...

I'm keeping the 18-140mm that's coming with it and passing along my 18-105mm if she she wants it. She probably won't, though, because a 35mm f/1.8G is just about permanently attached to her soon to be out-bound '3200. She adores that little 35mm so I may wind up selling the 18-105mm... Anyway, I hope she'll be happy with the '5300; she so seriously needs the upgrade. UPS says it'll be here in a couple days.

Oh, and for those who don't know what the '5300 looks like, here's a stock photo:

Would you like to sell me one?

Sure. 5cents less than Nikon wants for one. :p

Sauntered into the local camera store this morning and found me one of the lenses on my Wish List: Nikon 50/1.8 Series E.

This will be part of my 'ultra-light/compact' set of lenses.

I also found this:

Used to carry two lenses back-to-back.

Lowepro Toploader Pro 70 AW.....needed something smaller than the Flipside 300, and smaller than the Nova 160 AW, but larger than the Toploader Zoom 45 AW (yes I have all those) to tote around the D4 or D800 w. grip with lens. I love Lowepro bags! :D
