AMAZING camera...except one thing. Darned if 14bit files....and .jpg files from 14bit shooting mode (obviously converted down to 8bit for .jpg in the camera)make my 64bit Operating System crash while trying to render thumbnails.

If I shoot in 12 bit mode.....everything is absolutly fine.

They have a codec for 32bit operating systems...but not for 64bit. Wrote Nikon and hoping to get an answer soon.

Now...with all that asside...and I am sure I will get that taken care of soon....the camera ...well...lets just put it this way.....I am so glad I sold my D2X to get this unit. It is nothing short of a huge evolutionary step forward.

Would post some inital shots..but their all 14 bit so cant do anything with them right now....but plan on playing this week in 12bit mode to get a feel for it.

It is the FIRST camera I have started to trust the matrix metering on.

More to come later.
