Pictures from My New Camera

[CoasterMatt]

Here's the pictures from my new camera - http://picasaweb.google.com/CoasterMatt/MyNewCamera

There's plenty of different pics from Disneyland, including some people you may recognize.

I also took some fireworks pics last night (not that great- we were on the esplanade, and I was really tired)

Wow! Heap of great pics!

I think I will have a new desktop image soon

[CoasterMatt]

I'm using the pic of Space Mountain (entitled 'Paint Please') as my desktop

Nice pix!!

So what IS the new camera?

[BarTopDancer]

Did you find a battery pack?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Now you can drool over the same lens (http://www.dpreview.com/news/0511/05110103nikon18-200vr.asp) I do. :D

Now you can drool over the same lens (http://www.dpreview.com/news/0511/05110103nikon18-200vr.asp) I do. :D

I've got one on order :)

[Ghoulish Delight]

So what IS the new camera?
Nikon D40. Identical to my Nikon D40X save for megapixels (6.1MP vs. 10.2 on the X). Fantastic cameras both.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I've got one on order :)So.....jealous. How much did you spend for it, may I ask? And which kit lens(es) did you have? I got the kit with the 18-55 and the 55-200, neither with VR.

[CoasterMatt]

DOH!!

Sorry, I misread that - I have this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16830993043) one on order.
The lowest price I've seen for the 18-200 VR was around $520 - maybe if Rose goes to see Bon Jovi in Chicago this summer... ;)

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, the 55-200 is my second choice. But damn it'd be nice to not have to switch lenses.

Yay new camera! Thanks for sharing the pics.

[BDBopper]

Congrats on the new camera. Nice pics! The best thing I love about seeing these awesome Disneyland pictures is the detail that I could never see with my naked eye (let alone with glasses on). Thanks for sharing!

[Gemini Cricket]

Thar be some great pics in there, thar be.
Congrats on the new cam. Nice pics.
:)

Dude, I LOVE the D40! We have one too and it's outta sight. Lovely new batch of pics!

[DreadPirateRoberts]

nice!

[Alex]

Well...if you're going to settle for Nikon I suppose that's a good one.


(That's just empty trash talking; I'm a Canon person and am working hard to convince myself to upgrade to the 5D prior to our Europe trip this fall rather than just the 40D. Actually I like the Nikons a lot, I just don't want to have to get new glass -- not that I have a lot, I just don't want to replace it.)

[Not Afraid]

Very cool pix.

[Snowflake]

Matt, I just love this one:

450

[mousepod]

Great shots. Wow. The color... the clarity... nice.

[Kevy Baby]

The color... the clarity... Oh, the humanity...

[Tref]

I likee. Good stuff Matt.

[wendybeth]

Great pics, and it is a beautiful camera, Matt. I'll post the pic from my camera asap.:D

[BarTopDancer]

But did you find an electronics store?

[CoasterMatt]

But did you find an electronics store?
Yes, and the Guiness shots helped, thank you :)

[BarTopDancer]

Yes, and the Guiness shots helped, thank you :)

The Guiness shot helped you find an electronics store? Sweet!

And you're welcome!

[madmonkeygirl]

BTD we did went to Fry's Sat afternoon to get him his battery and some more blank discs to burn my pics and video onto...let me say you missed a better show on Saturday night. I got more Jon interaction not on the side stage just from my seat...10th row right side isle seat near center section...a bit more pictures and video as well...lol Jon was in a much better mood on Sat night and even said so...

[NickO'Time]

Thanks for the photos Matt, the parks look great. Loved them all.
Congratulations on the new camera! :snap:

[Kevy Baby]

So how many nekked pictures of your wife have you taken?

[CoasterMatt]

One thing that I'd like to point out about all of the pictures I've posted so far - I didn't use any manual setup- they were all taken with the auto programs, I haven't even started the really creative stuff. :)

It's like a kickass point and shoot - with the ability to go manual when I need (or just want) to.
