been really thinking about it, and ive decided that i absolutely want a nikon d80. not yet sure if its too much awesomeness for me, so im gonna ask around at some camera shops and get some pretty intelligent info on it (the dude at future shop really wasnt that helpful, and only knew a little portion about the camera).
if it is too much awesomeness for me, im gonna take a step down and grab the d60 (oddly enough the d70 is below the d60 in performance. who knew). most likely, ill be getting a d80 though.
if you or someone you know has one or has used one, i wanna know what they thought, cuz this $1000 camera is kind of a big deal
