I like how he says "to justify my recent D2x purchase" - like he feels guilty or something.

Of course the D2x is better! Do you think Nikon would have put all of the features of their $6000 camera into a $2000 prosumer camera? - duh!

At least his chemical reactions are correct. Too bad that magnesium IS also a metal. Of course, the D2X is also metal. Probably also a magnesium alloy.

ROTFL No kidding - that's gotta be one of the funniest posts I've seen at DPR!

Comparing the 5fps to 8fps with all identical pictures (and of a little, slow moving kid mind you) was absolutely classic!!!

Thanks for the link - made my morning.

regards,
C

While that post was meant to be funny, the sad thing is a lot of people (aprticularly on DP Review) believe that it's true. Particularly the part about the D2X becoming useless when a D3X comes out. They think that now that the D200 has been announced, the D100 is a useless piece of crap.

BTW, I've seen some posts over there by people complaining about things the D200 does not have. The camera isn't even out yet and they're complaining about it.

These people need to get out more and take pictures.

Looks like that post attracted someone in a bit too much of a hurry...

I quote:

What stupidity.

I started with 10) and couldn't go further. Being a Metallurgical Engineer I know that thousands of components in automobiles, aircraft, our homes etc. are manufactured from Mg and do not pose a threat to our safety.

Go back to school Mr Science!!!!!


Maybe the complainant thinks irony is in the periodic table too

I would be happy to trade my D2X w/RRS right angle plate & spare battery for (2) D200's + a 70-200 VR.
BTW-I do love my D2X, but am practical too.

wow, I didn't know that about the stock ticker. Time to start selling my body and saving for the DX2. Come on if I could shoot football and watch my investiment portfolio grow at the same time...
