The world needs more Scott Murray's!
This is just one more time that the Nikonites bunch has proven their greatness! This is just the spark of joy I needed today! Thanks to @Scott Murray and @hark (Cindy) for demonstrating that there is still kindness and thoughtfulness left in this world.
Does this camera use the EN-EL3 Battery? If so, I have a couple that I somehow wound up with that I can send along.Whoopsie! I sent a PM to the wrong forum member earlier today who was kind enough to let me know my mistake. Friggs, I just sent you a PM.
I pulled out my D90--the battery was totally depleted so it is charging. After about 30 minutes of charging, I put the battery back in the camera to take a photo. I didn't look at the time stamp to see if it was accurate. The date is correct but the time stamp is off by around 13 hours. Not surprised considering the battery was totally discharged. I put the battery back in the charger where it is still charging.
Here are links to the jpeg and NEF I shot a little while ago. The D90 has one card slot but shoots both jpeg and NEF on the same card.

Thanks folks. I sent my response in pm's. Thank you both for your generous offers. I am blown away by your thoughtfullness. The past couple of days I was so depressed. No I am excited.
God bless you both,
Unfortunately my D90 isn't fully operational with Friggs' 200-500mm lens which I just confirmed via phone with Nikon support. I don't think the aperture will stop down. That lens is geared towards newer bodies. So the ball is now in Scott's court.

I don' t understand what you mean by that.
Didn't the D300 come out not long after the D90?

Thanks again Scott. Words can not express my gratitude. Not only does it get me shooting again, but it allows me to try full frame as I have never used one before. I'm just afraid once I cross that line I will not want to go back. I just wonder how much of the "reach" of the crop sensor will I miss. Time will tell and I am excited to find out.
God bless,
What a great gesture Scott! Thank you for being so kind, just reading this made my day!
