I agree with Christian. When I have looked at the DS, the one thing that holds any interest for me is the buffer/writing. Everything else I have looked at is the same or worse than the D. I use both thumbwheel, use hyper program, hyper manual, regular manual, continuous AF with manual, AV, Hyper Program, etc. Wireless flash controlling from the RTF and on and on. External buttons for meter mode, drive modes, etc.
If I had to get another body now, it would be a very hard decision because of the low price of the DS, but I think I would still get another D - works the way I work. -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, July 11, 2005, 9:23:37 AM, you wrote: C> Except for that last statement (grin), what he said.
