Greetings from Middlesex

Just a short note to say hi.

I've only recently got really into digital photography having purchased a Nikon D50 earlier in the year on the recommendation of a mate of mine. What a fantastic camera it was. It did everything that a newbie to photography could want and more. Unfortunately, recently, on the Ferry on the way back from the South of France some nice individual lifted the camera and it was never seen again. I lost several hundred photo's I'd taken whilst away which was harder to swallow than the loss of the camera

.
Having umm'd and arr'd about replacing the camera with another D50 or with a D70S I decided to go the whole hog and bought the Nikon D80, last week. What a great camera. I'd love to hear other users comments about this camera.

I'm looking forward to using this website and hopefully improve my skills and understanding of photography.

Thanks

Les
