		<description>I am looking to buy a Nikon d90 with a 18-200mm in June. Should I pull the trigger now with these rebates or wait--will I just wind up paying $200 more by waiting?</description>

		<description>Eh? Is this site sponsored by B&amp;H and Adorama???

Why is there so much focus on driving readers to these stores??

30 links to B&amp;H and 35 to Adorama! Surely we are bright enough to take one line of the deals they both offer.</description>

		<description>Yes they have. I believe the last time was around Christmas 2008. They might have also done it during late spring of 2009 but I&#039;m not sure of my memory on that one.</description>

		<description>The Nikon basher who speaks out of BOTH sides of your mouth here!

Guess who?

In one hand Nikon has too low a resolution?
On the next hand, they don&#039;t listen to their customers?
On the next hand, they don&#039;t have good quality sound?
On the next hand they do not have a camera like the Canon 5DMK2?

Well, here is my response!
1. They don&#039;t have as crappy a body as the MK2 even though I like the picture quality from this camera, the body has many documented problems and defects.
2. Canon does not have an answer to either the OLD D3 nor the new D3s!
3. Canon does NOT have a current response to the older D3X in any camera.
4. Nikon just introduced a Point and Shoot with 1080i and good sound.

Next - I really do not care what you wish for Nikon to make to placate you as you probably would complain even if ANY manufacturer gave you all your wishes for ten bucks.
You do the &#039;female doggy thing&#039; well - sorry for anyone who is around you in real life.
You buy and sell whatever you wish - MAKES no difference to anyone here in particular.
I leave dreamers and complainers alone as most of the time, people like that have unresolved issues in life - LOL!
Some people get a charge out of attempting to bully others who don&#039;t see life or things as they do and then when you tell the person that perhaps they look through &#039;rose colored glasses&#039;, they now target you for their hate induced diatribe - LOL!

No more comments to you pal!</description>

		<description>Jabs, 
1) Nikon does not offer anything that competes with the 5DII. 20+MP at an affordable price. Jeez man, you are missing the point.

2) Video + Sound. Now name one Nikon product that does 1080P with decent sound. None

3) I did not call you names because I respect other human beings but I cannot respect your low class personality that allows you to offend others.

4) I am not your pal! If you would work for me with this style, you would be on the street looking for a job.

5) The D3x has more to do with Sony than you can even imagine. Go back to around 2004-2005 and read how much money sony put into imaging sensor development. Please do the same excercise for Nikon and you will find out that Sony spent about 10-50 times more on research than Nikon. The bottom line is that the D3x is overpriced! If it would be the price of the D3 or D3s I would not bitch about it. But $5,000 (+ - couple of hundreds) is the limit that many are willing to pay for that. Nikon slapped all of us in the face with that! Before that I purchased couple nice lenses to make sure they&#039;ll work nicely but I refuse to pay 8 grand! So I just sold 2 Nikon lenses. Go figure it out what I am up to. I will take a look at the 1DsIV and if it comes with 32MP I might buy it no matter it is going to be 8 grand. You know why? Because it will take Nikon 5 years to reach 32MP.</description>

		<description>Greetings ZZDDRR,
If you cannot clearly see the differences and the better results of going from a D3 to a D3X, then perhaps you are visually challenged.

Maybe you get a computer and perhaps try Linux, as the 64bit versions (Ubuntu Studio -for example) will allow you to go past the 100% scaling limitations of many other Operating Systems.

Maybe your tools are outdated?

When you get a computer that can show you the obvious differences, then tell me!

Perhaps you never heard of Laser surgery or even glasses - LOL!

Sorry pal, but now teasing you for your asinine implication.

GET REAL!

Nikon needs above 12 megapixels per your claims YET when they delivered this in a 24 megapixel D3X, it is now equal to a 12 megapixel D3 or worse, you perhaps do not see any tangible differences or benefits - thus defeating your arguments here.

THANKS!</description>

		<description>I call &#039;em as I see &#039;em pal.

You make incessant complaints here and then when answered you try and turn the person&#039;s words on them.
RIGHT now, Canon is behind Nikon is resolution -FACT!
The D3X has been a best seller for Nikon and the D3s is doing the very same thing in the PRO markets.
Learn this - a TOOL that can make money for you is NOT a cost to the skilled user, as it PAYS for itself perhaps after the first use.

Your not seemingly grasping that - is what makes you clueless as you rant about YOUR wishes devoid of any semblance of reality.

Sorry pal but not some idealist who shouts at the moon trying to get my way.

I spend my time doing things that benefit myself and not barking at others about some apparent shortcoming in equipment.

Some people are so dense that they expect the whole world to suffer from their apparent malaise.

Rational minds are able to overcome simple obstacles while fools or dreamers pontificate about what they wish for while unable to deal with WHAT is in front of them.

One contributes while the other creates discord to make up for their own lack of ability or skill.</description>

Blow up the images from both and make a judgement call</description>

		<description>Jabs, 
Perhaps as you said that I am a &quot;incessant CLUELESS complainer&quot; is true. It tells me a lot about the person who you are by calling others names. Thank you so much! I hope I made your day so you let your frustration out on somebody. Happy?</description>

		<description>Amazon do have some (but not all) rebates listed for the last day or so.

For instance for the d90 and d300 there is a special offer that states:
&quot;Save $200.00 on Nikon 70-300mm Lens when you purchase 1 or more Qualifying Nikon DSLR offered by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2F&amp;tag=nikorumo-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Amazon.com&lt;/a&gt;. Enter code 7O3OOMAR at checkout.&quot;

The D5000 has a similar offer for the 55-200mm lens</description>

		<description>Hey ZZZperson,
Why don&#039;t you ask Nikon, Canon, Leica and others why their cameras are all so expensive.
PER its&#039; performance, the D3X actually is cheap- WHY?
It is USED to make money and if you buy one and cannot recoup your costs in a few months, then you probably are a LOUSY photographer.
It is NOT for collectors, profilers or egomaniacs, as it is a mere tool.

It seems like all you care about is being or having the BEST specs while perhaps not knowing whom or at WHAT market a camera is aimed at?

Perhaps what if I now was to state that Canon is STUCK at 21 megapixels and Nikon has moved from 12 to 24 megapixels? - but I won&#039;t, as not some juvenile.

I don&#039;t care WHAT megapixel Nikon goes to, as long as the camera is BETTER in picture quality and not worse than the previous generations.
You seem clueless pal - grow up!

I deal with WHAT is in front of me and NOT what is promised, hence a happy human being instead of an incessant CLUELESS complainer.</description>

		<description>I am in the market for a full frame right now. I joined the Canon 5d MarkII, D700 and D3s forums on flickr. I posted a few questions on each forum looking to find out the likes and dislikes of the cameras. Funny how things turned out. The Canon folks had more dislikes than likes it seemed (focusing problems, poor iso performance, files to big to run on their computers, etc.) I was surprised to here all the negatives. On the other hand the Nikon camp had nothing but praise (minus the video comments) I am not buying a DSLR to take video. Just a question, how many people really need more than 12mp. I don&#039;t know too many people that are blowing up billboard size images. I got caught up in this whole rumor thing looking for the next best thing. I think I am done now. I going to buy the D700 with the rebates and be happy. The D700 is an amazing camera now, if I want video there are plenty of hd pocket cams out there.</description>

		<description>Jabs, I wonder, are you going to say the same about resolution 6 months from today when 20MP+ would be standard?

And besides that, still none of you was able to explain why the D3x is so expensive if high resolution was so bad.

It does not matter how I try to explain to you all. 12MP is the past!!!! 6 yrs old tech!!!!</description>

		<description>Why do you complain so much?
The Nikon D3s is a completely new sensor and so far, I have not seen any reference by Nikon as to who makes it. Many, many camera manufacturers CONTRACT OUT their sensor designs and FABRICATION to others and thus quit whining.
Just buy a Canon and be done with it.
Canon is the one reacting to Nikon and almost three years later they have not caught Nikon.
Have you seen the really and mostly awful pictures from the Vancouver Olympics?
These alone justify Nikon&#039;s stance of releasing well made and superior picture quality cameras instead of &#039;specmanship&#039; based ones like Canon.
I don&#039;t see Nikon behind in the picture quality race but behind only in video - NOT a big deal, as there are several variants of HD video and they all are interchangeable. Ever looked at the minute differences between 720i and 1080i?
Apparently not! Do you know at what fps they make MOVIES or FILM? Did the 5D MK2 have that capability when released?
Canon is now giving us more WORSE megapixels and drumming up this as an advantage to foolish people. Have YOU looked at the results from a 50D, a 7D or the new MK4?
Probably NOT?
The D3s is a revolutionary camera and it beats everything from Canon in picture clarity, low ISO and High ISO results - fact!
Not to mention the D3X!
Nikon took the more conservative route of actually having a better image pipeline and you want them to be like Canon or others placating dumb or dimwitted consumers!
The ambiguous statements by their &#039;representatives&#039; were originally in other languages and thus can mean almost anything or get lost in the translation.
If I state that I will now concentrate on a better balance between ISO and resolution it DOES NOT mean that I have failed or succeeded, but it perhaps means that my next goal is to bring out a different type of camera for a different market - PERHAPS!
In computers, there are quad (4), dual, triple, octo (8) and hexa (6) cores with them all having advantages depending on your type of workload.
SAME in cameras.
The D3s is a PRO camera designed for a specific market (not consumers) and they can&#039;t make enough of them, apparently! It also puts the D3 to shame and Nikon could have even called it by another name, as it is that revolutionary!
Nikon needs a replacement for the D300 and an &#039;s&#039; update for the D700 perhaps plus maybe a D700X (24 megapixel version).
Canon is targeting a different audience from Nikon, it seems with well &#039;specced&#039; but lousy cameras and if you want that, then go BUY a Canon and quit complaining.
I started using Nikons with the F3HP and this fight between Nikon and Canon has been around before that. The 5dMK2 is great and actually the numerous updates are NOT an asset but to correct the numerous SHORTCOMINGS of the camera - and some still remain.
Nikon does not have to do that often, as apparently they seem to take their time in properly testing a new body. SINCE when does a mistake now become an asset?
Sorry pal, but Canon is on a roll of &#039;specmanship&#039; and mediocrity and right now their older cameras are way better than their new stuff - if you want the same from Nikon, then you are a fool.
Go buy an overhyped product then and be done with it - apparently you do NOT know what quality entails.
There must be an M9 with your name on it then!
How many firmware updates have they released for the MK4 and to fix WHAT?

I like my Nikons AS they are as beautiful 12 megapixels are better than horrible higher megapixels. Egomaniacs always like the bragging rights of bigger everything EVEN when the results are horrid!
Buy what you like but don&#039;t bash the manufacturer who actually IS listening to their PRO AUDIENCE!
Ever seen the lack of RED response in the new Canons as compared to the old FULL FRAME Canons?
Someone needs to respond to your incessant complaints here.
Go buy a 4/3rd system or whatever you like, as soon Nikon will perhaps address their lack of features BUT if these features come at the cost of picture quality, then I will refuse to buy future Nikons.
Different perspective pal!
I don&#039;t live or die by SPECS, but I look at results - hence PRO and not amateur!</description>

		<description>I wonder why Nikon so worries that with let say D800 will cut the sell of D3x? Ok, it will cut the sale, but won&#039;t cut the income. Money will stay at Nikon either way. 
And those who waits for D800 sure won&#039;t buy D3x instead, if D800 won&#039;t come out.  
Well, I let my self go off the hook and bought recently D700 which is fine for me and I already take photos, which is most important thing.</description>

		<description>You live in a dream world. Go out and take a look at the dry market!

1) I work for Canon
2) They actually pay me to come here and bash Nikon
3) Are you happy?

4) People like you would still live in caves if others who want more wouldn&#039;t exist. So go back and play with your 12MP camera.</description>
