Looks nice! They got a nice design team for sure

In terms of looks they are certainly targeting people who can´t afford a Leica, but the retro design is also useful to enhance your awareness of aperture/shutter control. Great colors and a really good jpg.-engine. But: compared to DSLR´s the focus is rather slow, it works differently.

We will soon be the proud owners of A Nikon D3 (only 100,000 clicks thanks to @Jesse !!) plus a 28-300 lens.  Just in the process of bidding on a 40mm Micro.

Our Fujifilm X-Pro will be sold.  Whilst I love that camera, I think the D3, will be better for what we need.

So if anyone is interested in an effectively brand new Fujifilm X-Pro, plus 2 lenses, plus a shit load of extras, PM me…..

[Finn666]

sounds damn tempting

…and congrats on the D3, i'm sure you're going to love it! pm'd jesse about it as well, happy to see it stays in the family!

Great camera, congrats

My brother's currently shooting with a Nikon D800E, and that might make a nice partner for the D3.

Think I am going to enjoy the D3…

I have a d5000 and not once have I broke it out for IH photos. I need to get on it. No more crappy I phone pics

[Giles]

I need a carry case for the Nikon D3 and the 28-300 lens.  Suggestions please?

[ohighyo]

Something with some size. It's nice to have different lens options in one bag.
It's technically my wife's, a Christmas present, she uses it quite a bit. I keep telling myself I am going to learn how to use it, but I just take photos which autofocus. My wife wishes she had a larger bag so she can keep multiple lenses with her if we go on trips

Billingham makes classy timeless bags, and artisan and artist makes amazing stuff as well.

Come to think of it this seems like the perfect time for us to collaborate on an iron heart camera bag run.

But in the meantime a Hadley series by billingham should get you going, I've been using a Hadley pro for my go to leica small kit to shoot concerts and the bags going strong on 7 years now with constant use.

They're in the UK as well.

A&A is Japanese, go figure.

Cheers
