4/365 it's here it's here it's here!

ahhh the D700, it has arrived and I couldn't be happier! Al and I picked it up at the post office today. We ordered it from Galaxly Camera out of Ottawa, Canada. It's where I ordered my 85 1.4 as well and had a great experience with them. Started reading the hand book....it's a long one, but I love finding out all these new and exciting functions. The best....best best thing are the 51 focus points! Planning on practicing with back button focus that allows me to fix a focus point on something outside the focus box range. I'm always saying that I wish I could compose the photo differently but can't get a focus point on that spot, manual focus for me is iffy, my eyes aren't perfect and I aim for spot on focus!!!! Any whoo, Al and I are so happy to have it and feel so blessed. We have had much support on getting this camera, from all those photo shoots over the fall, to an AMAZING Christmas gift from Australia ;)! We are so thankful and won't let you all down. We are going to use this camera to it's fullest potential! I took a photo today with ISO 6400, it isn't at all bad! Just a little grainy but man WOWZA! Seriously?? Don't need a flash for this beauty!!!!!!

My original plan was this photo and a photo of me with the camera...been sick all day with a silly head cold and just ran out of time...so here's the box, taken with the camera!!!
