    Heartbroke

    Sent my D7000 off yesterday to Nikon, had a little mishap and it got partially submerged in water. Initial estimate for repair was $150-$300! Anybody that's dealt with NIkon know approximately how long it will take to get it back?

    Walk around Beaufort

    Taking a break from painting and took a walk around historic Bay St. here in Beaufort, managed to dodged the rain long enough to get a couple shots with the new D7000 and 16-85mm lens. My first real attempt at Monochrome and think it turned out fairly decent.

    Need some advice from the pros
