She Who Must Be Obeyed is now the proud and happy owner of a Nikon D70. Got the bundled lens and the spiffy new SB 800 flash as well. Must admit, the flash is overwhelming, seems to do about everything but make coffee in the morning. It's maiden voyage was a trip to Fort Worth for the annual Porsche event. Pretty spiffy. Unlikely anything we took with it will end up on the cover of Car and Driver but very pleased with the results. Which brings up the For Sale topic. Her N90S/SB26 combo is officially on the market. She is comfortable that it will not be used again. Should she want to use film, the M7 or the F100 will do just fine. The camera and flash both work as they should and come with boxes, flash bag, etc. I would not call them mint but they are far from beaters. I think of mint and like new as interchangeable. Based on the offered trade allowance, decided to offer it to the list. The asking price is 400 including shipping in the US. Pictures can be sent if desired. I also have a Metz 32CT3 up for grabs. It has the 'universal' shoe module. I found that there is no module for the M7 so even though I like the size and power, it is unlikely that I will ever use it. Not sure what it is worth and will entertain 'reasonable' offers. Thanks for all those that took the time and contributed to the decision. Bill woc2@earthlink.net
