    Price
    Been watching Ebay and it seems like the prices are running from the $1900's and up for the camera. I have the full kit with original boxes, manuals etc and am including the SB-26. I would like to get at least $2k for the package and I will even throw in a 1 gig card.

    Let the frenzy begin:uhoh

    ps, thanks fish

    Are batteries that much of an issue with yours?

    seems that is the biggest complaint of the D1X that I have read.

    I'm still debating on what I want to get.

    D1x batteries
    The OEM batteries were pretty poor especially if you used only a portion of the charge and recharged them. They develop a memory. You can draw them all the way down and then recharge and that helps.

    That is why I picked up two polaroid batteries. Almost as good as the lithium on the D2h, I could get up to 1000 frames easily on one battery and sometimes up to 13-1400. Unless you are out and shooting tons of pics with no available power source I don't feel the batteries are an issue.

    Can you show a picture of it?

    A few guys I know who shoot with D1X swear by them. Can you take a low-light photo with it?

    d1x shots
    John,

    This was a concert I shot for Raindog in Yachats last fall. Lighting was really poor, really poor...all shots were hand held.

    Deacon, unfortunately I'm going to have to bow out of this one. Upon advice of close friends who are photographers, it's better for me to get one with a warranty. sorry.

    Anytime I buy stuff with no warranty (when I used Nikon) I sent it to Nikon for a once over. It comes back with a 6 month warranty. thumb.gif

    Off the market
    Well Deaconess just informed me that she wants the D1x for her own use. She is a painter and often paints my photos and wants to be able to shoot some of her own shots!

    Whoopeeee, glad she is excited about it but I may be allowing a monster to be created.
