FS: Nikon D3 (two of them, moved to D3s)

[Jim Poor]

My first D3s got here today. Need to sell two of my D3 bodies before I get #2.

Two US Model D3 bodies for sale. Body, Lens Cap, charger, battery, original box, etc for both. One purchased at Photocraft in VA, the other at Epperson in OK, City.

I know I have the video cables for one of them, I'll have to look for the other unless you don't care. I only have eyes on one original strap (never used). but I'll throw in a Black Rapid R-strap for the other if I can't find the original.

$3750 each, shipped in continental U.S.

Paypal, Check (must clear before shipping), Money order.

I can get you photos and such later if interested.

If you wan to pay by check and speed the process a few days, I can deposit from home through my bank if you can scan and email the check. Otherwise, you can snail mail it and wait a few more days if you aren't in a hurry.

uhhhh...
SO TEMPTING.

For a little extra on the shipping side, I can send one to Canada

God damnit!

Just when I'm about to drop the hammer on the D700!!! UGH!!

[Jim Poor]

Hammers are bad for cameras

I should no longer be allowed in this section of the forums...

I could totally do it, financially. I just can't JUSTIFY it.

[Jim Poor]

LoL, I think this is the first upgrade that I can truly justify for myself. About 90% of my work has been at ISO6400 and f/2 or even f/1.4. If I can get even better ISO6400 performance or just as good at ISO 12,800 I can get to f/2.8 and maybe even f/4 in some venues. That will open up a lot of flexibility that I didn't have with a D3.

Your justification could be helping a fellow photographer grow

Even better, with a last name like mine, you could always say you are sending money to the Poorhouse

[candleman]

haha
man.. i'd kill for a D3

NOT financially viable for me though

Far too heavy and unweildy for my style of shooting-I carry my camera in my right hand,strap wrapped around hand-street-style, ready to bring to the eye in an instant. I'll stick with my D 50 and Pano G1 thanks.

I have too much invested in Canon glass to consider a D3, but congrats on the D3s!

We want pics!!!!
