Nikon D70

We brought the camera home from the office this weekend. I think I’m in love. It’s a Nikon D70, the same as Dooce uses.

Anyway, if I overload you with photos, you’ll know why. The thing I love best about the camera so far is that when I push the button it actually takes the photo, no delay. See, the good people at Nikon know that when photographing children, if you have even the slightest delay, you’ll end up getting a picture of them picking their noses instead of smiling so prettily.

Here I am with my little spud.

    Holy cow, the glass incident is scary!

    My camera does the delay thing and it drives me INSANE. Might have to upgrade once baby arrives.

    i luv that pic of you and honor (and i luv what you’ve done with your hair). i luv my digital camera, but i *hate* with a passion the delay. mikey is good about sitting there with a smile on his face and saying cheese, but bella on the other hand, you are lucky to get a smile for one second while she looks at the camera otherwise, she is thru with ya and is busy looking at something else.

    I really love that last picture.

    There is something that must be said about a strong man being so vulnerable with their kids that is so touching. Very good picture!

    Your pics are amazing! And we’re in the market for a new camera b/c of that darn delay (among other annoying characteristics of my current Canon) I have to check out the Nikon D70. Pricey but if no delay, so worth it!!

    I LOVE, love, LOVE that pic of Honor and Eden you have on the homepage now!!!
