The wife sprung for a Nikon D5000 for Christmas.
I decided to take it for a spin at a New Year's Eve party with my family. I often found it hard not to pose people after they decided to become "unnatural" once they realized that a camera was pointed at them. I think that I will have to resort to sneaky paparazzi/ninja tactics with super zoom lenses on quiet mode to really capture people in their candid elements.
I did have an issue with the NEF format not being able to be utilized with most printshop sites, but then again, it shouldn't make too much of a difference. Pictage and Zenfolio seem like such nice sites, but can I really trust them to make great prints off of JPEGS? I guess I have to just switch to huge, fine JPEGs with Pictage and convert to TIFF for Zenfolio if I make the switch.
Here's a few of the family...
