Yup, that and the Canon 1Ds/1Ds mk 2... That model is built like a tank: magnesium alloy, watertight seals, etc.

Solid.

Here's a pic I took with the D70. I wish the colors of the feathers came through instead of the shadows.

I wish I could have blurred the background more, but the aperature was already set to the lowest setting for that lens. Maybe next time.

I just got back from a Labor Day weekend trip to Sin City. I wanted to take night shots of the city so I tried.

I took this while waiting for the show at Treasure Island.

This one to be cleaned up and straightened. The Eiffel Tower looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa here. You can barely see the light from the Luxor shooting up into the sky.

Does someone need an 18-hour happy hour? This place does.

Just need to get yourself a SB-600/800.

With the new D80 out now, I'm so tempted to sell off my D50 and get me a D80.

But damn camera gear adds up fast. I really want a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, but I'm holding back till photokina to see the new Tamron 70-210mm f/2.8 lens.

Here's a shot of my D50 + Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8
