What a glorious moment to finally have this piece of technology in the hands of mind. Well, carpet (literally). I've been longing for a DSLR camera or at least a camera that can do a better job than a regular digital camera. The NIKON D80 was it (could be better cuz there was a budget constraint). I still like it very much.
Actually I love Canon cameras a lot. They were like my number one choice in providing the best digital pictures. So why Nikon? Well, I was "over exposed" to the fact that Nikon DSLR camera does a magnificent job. Not only that. I had couple of experience with the Nikon SLRs and I like the way it is. You see the problem is, when you like something, you want it. Not only want it, but the exact same one that you first laid your eyes on (only a dumba$$ will literally put their eyes on it). Anyway, do you know how it goes when you like something or someone? Let's look at an analogy here.
DID YOU KNOW!???
Cameras are closely related to a girl. When you first meet a girl, you will have your own impressions about her. So, it turned out to be a good one, you want to get to know her and better more, be her friend. You take her out for a dinner, a movie, a stroll in the park, or maybe surprise her with one of your lame @$$ old school surprises. You will just sneak up to her music class just to catch a glance of her even though you still have 101 things to do. Once you get into the comfy zon and know each other better, you would want to take it to the next level cuz she becomes more appealing to you over time and you know she's the one. Once you had your eyes, heart and mind locked onto her, every other girl appears invincible to you (not applied to crocodile breed), am I right? Similar to a camera.
At the first glance, it will look just so-so or "big deal, it's just another camera". Look at it couple more times, you became attracted to it cuz the design is slick and very appealing to the eyes. You would go to Fotokem, Foto Shangri-la, or www.nikon.com just to check it out and to learn more about its capabilities and functions. You look at the works of a Nikon camera and now you want to get your hands on it cuz you suddenly want to be a photo journalist. You will borrow it from your friends, or work place to use it at birthday parties, wedding dinner or even on a family vacation. Now what? You want to take it completely to the next level. You want to own it cuz everything seems to be perfect. What about Canon EOS DSLR or Sony ALpha cameras? F*** em. I Love my Nikon.
NOW YOU KNOW....
Well, that doesn't mean Canon and Sony cameras are no good. They are not only good, they are fantastic (especially Canon). I own 3 canon digital cameras, S400, SD630 and SD750. S400 is completely busted and same goes to the SD630 due to flash flood. The lens is blurred and it takes a retail price to repair it. So screw it. The current SD750 which in my opinion is not as good as the SD630 because the resolution somehow looks bad when in not so bright areas and the flash over expose the pictures. So in the end, it boils down to which camera we are more comfortable and used to.
