Took all year of rolling pocket change and some extra saving on the side but TODAY was the day!!!!!

Got myself a new Nikon D7100, with the 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens, a Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G lens, and a Vanguard messenger bag to hold it all! Also grabbed a copy of "Nikon D7100 for dummies" to help familiarize myself with the new equipment!

(note the photo was taken with my cellphone and NOT the new camera lol)

Time to read up on the new camera!!!


Congrats on the 7100... I have one and really like it... use the 18-105 a lot with mine!

A tripod that sticks to the wall?


KEWL!


I'm pretty sure I took the pic on my phone in portrait, so why it has rotated I don't know!!

It's the GH-100 head which is a ball head :)

I can get my new project underway now! Maybe tomorrow, though, as I'll be having a few sherberts tonight! :D

yeah but a "trigger" ballhead as opposed to the straight ball head (SBH-100) which Pat and I both got with our kits, loving mine btw,

Ah I see - sorry! There's my photogrophy n00b-ness coming through :rolleyes:

The reviews were all positive. I've had a bit of a play in the office but not got camera with me at the minute so haven't tested it properly but I like it so far.

I have the same 'pod with the kit ball head. I have been contemplating a second head, but have not decided between a standard pan head or this ball with grip. I would appreciate hearing your review of it.

No problem. Give me a couple days to have a play and I'll post something in the relevant forum.

I went with this tripod. I may upgrade later to the handle grip. But I figured this is a good start considering I never owned a tripod worth more then 20.00!
