[QUOTE="Kodiak, post: 174336, member: 15426"] [B][COLOR="#696969"]Worst case scenario:[/COLOR][/B] In spring 2013 I got my D800E. For me, this was just a necessary addition to the arsenal I already have. A fellow photographer showed up to my studio pretending to …I don't remember what exactly, anyway. On his shoulder was hanging hie trustworthy D90 and he was holding in a hand his new tripod that he was swinging in front of my face rather thoughtlessly, until I said: "is that new?" Then he calmed down and answered: "No! …it's already a week or ten days old!" Go figure: he has a hard time making ends meet, and he shows off a RRS contraption that retails 1,490.00 € for his camera. This is the kind of story that makes me think of the infinite stupidity of some representative of mankind. My advice is think twice, don't let your ego take any part in any decision making and remember this: [B][COLOR="#696969"]"The decision power is all yours as long as the money is still in your pocket!"[/COLOR][/B] Have a good day… [/QUOTE]
