Quoting Ryleigh's Mama ♥:" I'm seriously kicking my own ass.   I just got it in December & already want to upgrade. lol."

It's better than the 3100 hands down. But I love my D7000 already. It's a lot to get used to but learning it is awesome!

Hi ladies Im in the market for a new camera. I currently have a Nikon D80.
Im considering the Nikon D700 or the D7000
I take mostly pictures of portraits of people.
Im just curious which one you ladies would prefer, everything I read says the D700 is better even though its a older model.

D700. That's what I would have gone with had I had the extra $1k.

yeah, in September. Which makes me a little skeptical, it being so new, but I've read a TON of good reviews on it, so i'm going for it!

lol, we're always right on top of filing ours.   we love money.  

Quoting kuhlaneuh:" lol, we're always right on top of filing ours.   we love money.  "

Same here. That's also why I have them take out the most from my check when I work. I love a huge return. People advise against that but realistically, I would never put that into a savings account over the year. I'd rather get a fat check.

FINALLY updated my blog after slacking from being busy with school.

Well, like I said.. I'm not a wonderful record keeper. Going to try and be better this year.

The 6 week old I photographed yesterday....he was a tough one for sure! At first he was SOOO awake....smiling away and everything. Then when he finally fell asleep, he did not want to be on his belly at all, startled with the slightest touch, sound, movement, wanted to be completely sprawled out while he slept, arms in the air and everything, lol. But still managed to get a handful of great shots of him  I got to snuggle this one more than I have with any of the other newborns I've done so far , too, no complaints about that

Aww, sweet. I guess the part about them being older is they are almost always super chunky.
