After flogging a couple of photos, I decided to spend the moolah on a shiny new Nikon D80 camera - and so far I'm loving it!

There's some nice new touches and improvements - the larger LCD is a vast improvement - and the interface has been considerably enhanced.

Although it's a fair bit smaller than the D70, it's still not as small as I'd like but I guess that's the price I have to pay for superb quality pictures.

I'll take it for a proper 'test run' soon, but here's a couple of handheld shots (400ISO, Sigma 30mm f1.4, Programme -2.25 exp comp).
