Well it is official, I have contracted Nikon Aquisition Syndrome. ;)

I've been saving up for 2 years for this thing. I no longer have the ability to blame the camera for poor photos. It now lies solely on the photographer (me). :D

Nikon D300
AF-S DX VR Zoom-NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED
Hoya Pro1 Circular Polarizer Filter and Protector
MB-D10 Battery Grip
SB-900 Speedlight
3x 4GB Sandisk Extreme IV (45MB/Sec) CF Cards
Gary Phong Lightsphere II Clear & Cloud w/ Domes
Nikonian's Mastering the D300 book (great book)
Giottos cleaning Kit and 2 Lense Pens
Lowerpro Slingshot 200 Pack
Nikon Capture NX2

I am in love.. the camera is much better than I could have imagined. The possibilities are endless. :)

Now I just have to get out there and take some real photos actually worth posting. ;)

Trust me I'm already dreaming of new lenses and additional speedlights, softboxes, umbrella kits, tripods, etc.. etc... ;)

I'm going to force myself to stick with the 18-200mm for a while which will give me a better idea of what I actually need, vs. what I "want". ;)

I would like a AF 50mm f/1.4 for availiable light indoor shots, though.

I have a 50 1.4 when your ready. I rarely use it anymore.

I think Dan is buying my 10.5...

I'll certianlly give you a holler once I recover from sticker shock. ;) At least I paid cash. That way the effects are short term. :D

lol..not hardly.

i still have to get a 600mm f4 (9k$) and then I would be happier. my 6 flash units are about shot, they need replaced after 2 seasons ($500 per unit) a few pocket wizards have seen the end of their life:p

when you do this stuff for a paycheck, you have to have damn near 2 of everything
