you keep saying the same thing and I keep asking the same question: how do you know?

What a pitty! Some nice chicks wouldn't be bad!

I should to add something to my first post:
In the 80ies, there were many people naked in the "english garden" at munich! Some of them used to take the underground or the bus home in the same clothes!!

For european/German people the US-mentality is a bit strange. In German TV they showed some soft p0rn showing a member of our parlament in her young days. In the US this would have caused a scandal for several months (remember Clinton/Lewinsky). Not so in GER!

BTW, I was wondering if there is any site to post what one would like on a new Nikon DSLR ?

Or there is a Nikon Feedback site?

Could be interesting

The few I already saw made me think..(“bothered me”)cause I like it much more than A900′s…

I found a hot pixel (red) that appears in many of the sample pictures (EOS 5D Mk II), at the same position…. I didn’t like that

I also missed the color aberration in-camera correction that Nikon has.

Besides these 2 things, I liked the IQ of the EOS 5D Mk II

-Thanks a lot for the link !!
I will check them.

I was joking of course – I cannot publish any naked photos because of the sponsors…

pablov you can see some real pictures taken two days ago with the 5D2 here and some at high ISO

http://foto.no/cgi-bin/articles/articleView.cgi?articleId=41057

click on the thumbnails near the bottom of the page to open the full size pictures ..it seems on par with the D700 ( the sony A900 is nowhere near as clean as the D700 )

I was watching few sample pictures of the EOS 5D Mark II and I found them pretty nice, I wil check all more carefully later.

I hope Nikon releases a D800/D900 soon with bit higher MP sensor and Good Movie quality (Hopefully 30fps, STEREO MIC-IN jack -as in 5D Mark II- and optional resolution up to HD 1080, -but I’m more concerned about the , MIC-in jack, frame rate and video smooth quality than a full HD resolution)

Yes I know this is a NikonRumor site but I hope Nikon includes some of the 5D Mk II features (despite some people could say they are not useful, but similarly happened at first with the LiveView…)

In case of doubt just proclaim yourself mentally unstable. You can get away with almost everything with such an excuse in Germany. Even beating people to a pulp. There is a possability that you have to do a few anger management seminars hoewever – but they are paid by the state.

The freshman students often take off their clothes for fun at the cathedral in the very center place of cologne.

You can be arrested for public nudity, because of “Erregung öffentlichen Ärgernisses” – something like “indecent behavior”.

But usually this is handled quite lax in Germany, they’ll first ask you to dress.
