Yep, you can pre-order the new Nikon gear introduced today. I’ve already contacted B&H Photo and ordered my D5 with the XQD option. Why that over the D5 – CF option? For me it’s real simple, XQD is so much FASTER and if you’re going to shoot that 12FPS with 200 frame buffer, speed is everything. I can’t wait for the first time I fill them Lexar XQD 128GB 2933x at that speed. My heart shutters just thinking about it!
And what about the D500? Yep, went and ordered one of them too! Why did a I order a DX body you might be asking? Well, for a very specific new project where a small, light, super high quality video camera will be perfect. The D500 couldn’t come at a better time for me.
And what about the new SB-5000 speedlight? Well of course, it has to go in the bag as well. Moving away from the infrared to a wireless signal is a BIG deal to me. I can’t wait for nesting season to put these bad boys to work.
and you can’t forget the ultra cool KeyMission 360 Action Camera!
What about the rest? Oh, I have no doubt it will find its way into my bag. This is enough damage for the 5th day of the year :-)
