[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 22152, member: 1573"] Thanks, all, for the hummingbird comments! May 16th 136/345 "Disaster" Was shooting at the domestic abuse shelter (photos for their website). Had my D2X on the tripod and handholding the D200. Stepped away from the tripod for 1 second and a worker backed into it. Knocked the whole thing down . . . D2X (with an SB-900) hit the floor, obviously lens first. The filter is shattered and jammed so I will need to send it in to get it off. I took several pics afterwards, and no damage to camera or the flash, or lens functions. This is incredibly rugged gear . . . hats off to Nikon, that I can pick the gear up off the floor and still be able to shoot. Trying to de-stress . . . probably a good indicator that I should insure my equipment for the future, especially as I upgrade to higher quality lenses (and take xanax . . . sigh).
