Does she want to mess around with a DSLR? That Nikon is a great outfit
and the price seems pretty good, but perhaps she'd want a simpler way to
take great photos, like the Canon Powershot g12:

Or one of these:

That little Canon is such a great camera, and so convenient to carry,
that I'm using my Nikon DSLR less and less.


I sold my full frame Nikon DSLR for one reason: it was just too damned
heavy to carry on a neck strap all day long while on vacation. I got a
much lighter Canon DSLR and now actually take the camera with me.
Alternately, I use my wife's pocket sized Canon, which also takes nice
photos.

Why must you post endlessly about what you have and don't have? Do you
honestly think that after being caught in lie after lie that anybody but
Don believes a thing you say? And do you think anybody gives a ****
about your opinions?
