out with the old...

...and hopefully in with the new...my beloved LUMIX FZ20 is now history.

sold to a nice but odd old chap early this afternoon...found him a bit strange as he didn't even testfire the camera for himself...only got me to take a shot to satisfy himself that it was in working conditionconfused

oh well, i shouldn't bother of course, since the camera's in good nick and i got a more than satisfactory price for it...

now to shop for my DSLR...have pretty much narrowed it down to the NIKON D40...the problem is, do i go for the newer X version with 10MP or just stick with the older but yet still more than adequate normal version with 6.1MP...the 10MP version is 210 bucks more and that 210 could better be ploughed into getting the 55-200mm AF-S VR lens which should come in about 420-430 bucks...

anyways, i do not really print out any shots larger than 6R so the additional pixels are all but unnoticeable...soooooo, i guess the choice should be obvious to me....right? ermmmmmI don't know - New!

here's a comparo/review of the D40 and D40x...
