Dslrs getting cheaper thanks to the mirrorless crowd. Love it!
Thanks for this, I have waited for listening to your thoughts about the d4. I have one and also a d700, also well trusted.
Take care
Hey Ken thanks for these videos! I took your advice and got myself a d7200. Keep rocking and my wallet thanks you as well
I'm still using my 4 D3 nikons and love them. Full time pro, 3 have had new shutters and between the 4 of them I'm well over 1,000,000 shots. I do a lot of news and sports and these just work, love them
The Nikon D3 is always be a great canera. . Have 6 of them and the clicks are well above the 800.000 and still shots perfect. Use it for portraits and risky places. Seek the perfect picture that come one in a lifetime. The Nikon D4 is the last best camera that Nikon have built. Shoot always with metal prime lenses since i had a Nikon F5.
@@johandenhertog6878 are we talking about the D3 or D3s? Tempted to pick up a D3 with 9700 actuations for about 500USD and when looking at reviews on it they always prais the D3 but all of them are praising the D3s with apparently much better low light performance...
From my personal experience, the secret BEST buy full frame Nikon camera is the d600/d610! Everyone was scared of the shutter leak issue so soooo many were being sold for cheap and people stayed away from them and therefore it’s one of those that’s just off the radar so it can be had for cheap. 610 didn’t have shutter issues, and early 600 with the issues got 610 shutters put in them for free from Nikon. it’s the predecessor to the d750, and it’s a damn good camera. I’ve always used it as backup to my d810, and most of the time it was the main cuss it was just lighter to carry around. As per his analogy, so many people buy a new d3xxx or d5xxx for same price as a slightly used d600/610!! Full frame modern camera with video for a few hundred bucks, it’s really the Best Buy Nikon full frame dslr atm for the price point!
I have a D600 with shutter upgrade and a D610 and I really like them. I bought my D610 new, but the D600 was under $400 and really pristine.
D610 autofocus is absolute trash. And that smaller AF selection range in the viewfinder...a terrible camera. Wish I'd have bought a D700 or D800 back in 2016 for my first camera. Whoops.
Still got my d800e which suits me except doesn’t have flippy screen but when I need that I’ve got X-T2 so best of both worlds 😉
Owned a D4 from New, will never sell it because it still gives me fantastic images.
I recently bought a “nearly new” D810 with just over 2000 actuations. I had been using a D7000 for years. Still have it and DX lenses. D810 for urban and rural landscapes via focus stacking and Lightzone in post. Having a great time. Thank you for your excellent videos. A fan from England.
Plenty of Nikons take perfectly good pictures. And thousands of us have no intention to spend a fortune unnecessarily.
The D3 is still tougher but the ergonomics and image output of the D4 are way superior.
Thank you so much for the video. I’m planning to purchase my very first DSLR which is Nikon D750 along with 85mm 1.8 + 50mm 1.8 G lens. I’m wondering is it still worth to buy this camera considering 5 years old?.
Purpose of buying a camera is for taking Portraits, Still, Landscape, Bird, Product photography (learning) and of course my kids.
It would be really great if you throw some lights on my concern to make a wise decision.... other options I have considered is Nikon D780 with one of the lens and Z6ii with the kit lens... apart from D780 and Z6ii I have been suggesting to go with D850 with the kit lens.
Since you own D800 so I can gain some more information and evaluate my decision.
Thank you and looking forward to your recommendation.
I have a Nikon D800 and Nikon D750 I start think in upgrade my gear. Im a landscape, architecture and gastronomy photographer but I love shooting waves as well, in your opinion what is the best upgrade I can make at this moment? I love your channel, thank you about the content you create ;)
I do 20x30 landscape prints on metal and am not pleased with my mirrorless system. I was going to get the D810 until I saw your review and now am looking for a D4 in good shape. Thanks for the advice.
Certainly understand your reasoning for choosing the D4 over the D810. But let's say I already own a D500, which I love, and have no plans to get rid of... Since that covers my needs for wildlife and sports, would you then say that the D810 (or maybe even a D800/D800E) would be a better second camera than the D4 for portraiture, events, and landscapes? I wonder if a D4 would be too much "overlap" in what the camera specializes in. If I buy a second body (which I would want if I start doing events), I'd like to also make sure I'm getting the most bang for my buck across the spectrum of camera strengths. Thanks!
I have two Nikon D4 bodies I use for sports and journalism. I have a D800E I use for portraits. I just sold my d500 and currently selling my D750 with full intentions of buying the D780. You, once again, have sold me on a low shutter county D4. I just love this FN camera, and I love consistency and dependability without having to change lenses with having multiple cameras - especially sports. Damn, I love this camera.
Just discovered your videos and I must say I’ve found them really helpful. I’ve been a Canon user and shoot mainly aviation. I’m considering the D850 as an upgrade and would like your thoughts on whether the D850 is a good choice for fast moving aircraft photography. I’ve got a budget of around £2000 for a used one and will probably get a 100-400mm lens as well. Really enjoy the honesty of your reviews.
I love Nikon DSLRs. By the way, what's your opinion for D750? I'm really anxious whether Nikon will continue producing/ supporting new/existing DSLRs, since the naked aggressive marketing for the mirrorless.
Helloooo from the UK, I hope you see this question... of those mentioned in the video which camera would you recommend for wedding photography? Or would you choose something else altogether for similar price?
Thanks big man.
My from new D3s has been hammered I’m not delicate or precious with my gear i shoot sports news events street astro landscapes anything and everything I still love this beast. If the time comes to upgrade the nikon I really don’t know where to go my gut tells me the D5 or 6 just because I love the look and feel of the D series yet so much talk of the Z series. Fingers crossed the D3s lives longer than I do. Saying all this if I drop on a cheap D4 I’m in 😏
Been looking at the D4 so nice to see that reinforced a bit. As for the bit about the South Korean crapbox, lol...mine has 86k miles on it and all I've had to do is change the oil and get new tires. My two buddies that have BMWs...have spent thousands in maintenance. I may not look sexy, lol, but I'll keep my crap box.
Please one on D500 vs XT4, has the buffer improved from XT3 or D500 is still on top?
Ken looking to upgrade my xt1 to xt3. Would you recommend d4 or xt3 or d500. I don't care about ff, I shoot both dx and ff
D7100, D700, D810 ... all per your recommendation at one point or another. The output from each is slightly different, but all are fantastic. For what they are worth on fleaBay these days ... they will all be staying with me, likely forever. Thanks for the great recommendations over the years.
What do you use each for? I keep thinking about getting a d700 as an inexpensive entry into full frame. What's your opinion?
How about used D800 or the D3S? Are they worth spending money 2022?
Thank you for all your Nikon videos and then some. Great info.
This video is perfect timing for me! Considering an upgrade but didn't know what to look at. So a D500 would be a good do everything camera (not much portraiture)?
Absolutely spectacular camera and they do portraits perfectly well.
Your low end .. is my high end .. d7200 also some from Paleolithic time like d50 and 70s ..😂 still for share on social media or 4x6 , 5x7 they have enough quality plus also have built-in af motor and 1/500 flash synch .. so still make me happy with the result .. and my Hyundai all ready pass 205,000 miles without problems..
I just tried something on my D3s I haven't tried before. I put my nikon 17-55 2.8 on it and WOW!!!. From 34mm up to 55 its perfect. No vignetting at all. Of course 34mm and below "Yes Vingnetting" But if you crop your shots as i do often its also fine there too. One just has to frame there shots properly to get what you want when cropping at 34mm and below.. Just good to know for me. Its a heavy combo tho. So for just walking around and snapping street or whatever i'll just use the nikon 35mm f2D or maybe 7100 with f2d.
In 2022 which would you recommend the D4 vs one of the Z mirrorless body, how does the performance compares.
Hi. Worth buying D3s now as a first camera ? For street & night photography
I bought a used D810. A big improvement in image quality over my D7100. Only problem is that when I AF Fine Tuned my lenses they looked best right at the limit of minus 20. I was wondering about anyone's experience sending their D810 into Nikon for focus calibration?
Can you do this video for 2024 ? Is the D850 a bargain ? Trying to upgrade my D760 and keep running DSLRs for another 10 years
I enjoy fashion/portrait & some street photography, been using just a D5300 for the past year or so, upgraded glass first got a 24-70 F2.8 and I’m about to purchase a D810 to finally switch over to full sensor and partner it with my glass, I am hoping the auto focusing won’t give me too much of a hard time especially with what I’m already use too lol higher MP definitely something I’m taking into consideration because I would like to start getting into printing my images large on canvas and selling them, also will for sure switch over to mirrorless once there’s some more options in Nikon and maybe Z7 price tag will drop lol please reply with your guys honest opinion on my decision. Buying D810 for $975. to give more context.
You used to say the D7200 sucked compared to the D7100, badshadow detail and resolution...did it get fixed?
2023:
Im rocking a D600 & D810.
Both bought for £725
Both under 20,000 shutter.
I have one and I agree with the D4. Wicked fine camera and it's below a grand used ! I won't sell mine even tho I have a Z6ii, a Z8 and a Z9. It's worth more as a spare than the cash.
LOVE my D4.
I love your reviews. I just can't enjoy my D500 over my d4 for sports. I just bought another D4 and I'm about to sell off my D500. Images just look flat. The outputs of the D4, dependability, and battery-life....all WONDERFUL! I have less than $2k invested in 2 D4's. LOVE THEM! I use them for photojournalism and sports, and I use my D800E for portraiture. I have a Tamron 70-200 A001 laying around I don't use, so I am thinking about selling my d500 and this lens to pick up a low shutter count D750 to add to the arsenal. Thoughts? Good stuff, Ken!
How much?
Does the N i k o n d500 is worth buying now (end of 2020) for Wildlife???
Which of these would you consider the better deal for landscapes? Right now my local camera shop has a D4 for $800 and a D500 for $900, both in equal condition.
I shoot real estate and and portraits. The D800/D810 are where it's at for me. Tons of dynamic range and plenty of pixels. I also have a D3s but use it rarely for sports/moving subjects. Not sure I'd use a D4 much more than I'm using my D3s. In fact, I am considering using the D3s as a trade in on a Nikkor 19mm f4 PC lens. I wish those damn things weren't so pricey.
Your the go to guy on RUclips no doubt ! I bought my D4s per your advice. I want a DX camera with similar button arrangements for distance shooting with my fx lenses. What’s your recommendation ?
D500 is the only choice if You want great DX quality
Help Ken! How can I program the camera so that when its turned off, the aperture of the lens is also closed to avoid damaging the sensor due excesive innecesary light? as a Street Photographer/Photojournalist having the lens cap off can be a huge factor in getting the picture or not!
I have both a D7000 and D7100 I do wildlife as hobby and do landscape non- professional but would love to get something for low light as I do go to lots of late night concerts and bar gigs so what do you recommend? I would love a FX body between $1,000 & $1,500
How about the D4s? What do you get more over the D4?
I have all three of the DSLR's you mention. All fantastic.
Thank you for being the new Nikon guy, The other guy just sold all his Nikon gear, Here I go aging looking for A deal on aA 4D, I have the d800e and a 7000 I enjoy watching your Chanel,
D4 toughest? What happened to the old D3/D3s that you praised so much? Or it finally showed his age?
6:57 my extremely rare 2011 charger rt mopar 11 was treated well but driven hard. I would take that over a new crappy car but the cost to repair and the reliability with no warranty would be bad. What if its the same with a d4 and a d7500?
I bought a D700 in 2020 for 260 euro (280 dollar), still need to go get it. It will be my first Nikon camera. If I'm happy with it, I might get the D4 when prices go down a bit.
I bought a Nikon D500 after I saw you highly recommended it, I am very happy with that, I shoot large wildlife n not bif, I now want to buy another camera to go with my Nikon AFS 300mm f2.8d non VR lens, again your recommendation, should I go for the D4 or buy another D500?
Hello Ken,
I am waiting for your recommendation one more time, d500 or d4 to pair with the Nikon 300mm 2.8.
@@sc12100 And I did buy another D500. Thanks
With this coronavirus epidemic some people are hoarding toilet paper meanwhile Ken is busy hoarding parts for Nikon D4 😅
lol just said same :)
Derrick Spurrier I have the D3 with low shutter count (less than 10k), I think it’s a good camera even at 12 megapixels.
Get a bidet and you can save for camera parts.
Hey just bought an almost new Nikon D3s mint condition, very good camera. 2 Nikon batteries with charger.
If the D810 has problems focusing so then should the D4? I have read that the D810 uses the focusing system from the D4s which is newer than the D4. Was the D4s problematic with focusing as well? I pick the D810 of these three. I would prefer a 16 mpix sensor to 36 (too big of file sizes for my taste), but the D810 is smaller, with more dynamic range (even though its pixels are smaller). I'm off to watch more of your videos hehe, keep up the good work.
no, thats not the case
i just got Nikon D700 for 300$ with 3 lakh shutter count and i sold my previous D700 with 6lakh shutter count for 210$... will get a used D4 soon.. i shoot product and fashion.. all you pixel peepers and 1000 point autofocus guys plz sell your D4s and d700s..
What would you choose between d4 & d750 for wildlife ?
Unless the prices jumped drastically since this video was made, D4 listed from 1500 to over 3 grand on eBay. Where are you finding these for a grand?
I'm new at photography. I'm trying to photograph lacrosse sticks, which are 30" long. I'm using a Nikkor 18-55 kit lens. The lens bends the sticks. What kind of lens do I need to stop this bending?
JUst purchased our D4s in excellent condition low shutter 60k, just a tad over £1K, very clean. We have a couple of D800s and the D850 for studio. Also a D3, mint for a song off eBay, in immaculate condition, love both cameras, The D4's are coming down in price, delighted that we found it.
What are your thoughts on the D610?
I have a D850 but i miss the compactness, the sturdiness and the brutal efficiency of a pro body (I shot with a D3, once). I am tempted to switch my D850 for a D4s in good conditions but I’m not sure. Can you help me? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi Ken, what about best value camera for low light events, at night, avoiding the use of Flash????
Ken, where does the Nikon D750 fall, in your opinion? It's going for about $879 New and $700 Used.
Been using mine for 4 years now (bought it second hand). Love it to bits. Shoot semi professionally with it and my D700. I shoot mainly for social media so no need to blow up. D750 dynamic range and IQ is fantastic. Highly recommend.
Hi, I have a D3X, similar to your obsession with the D4. I have a D3 which has just died and gone to heaven. So going to replace with either a D4s, D850 or possibly a more battle worn 150,000 clicks D5. What do you recommend? Would appreciate your advice, Less frantic than Jared. Cheers from UK
Did you watch the video? You can elminate the D5 immediately.
@@burntvirtue bought a D4s
I just grabbed a D3 in excellent condition for $581 however it didn't come with any accessories. Not even a battery. I ordered the Wasabi battery you requested.
Your advice on unrelated topic.. I keep dropping sb5000 on camera. I went to self fix the hot shoe attachment with nikon spare... all works except flash zoom errors permanently.. if I am not using flash zoom and just use auto ttl on camera..max 200mm at weddings on d850 or d5 should I worry about it? I am an ocd person for fixing things but don’t want to waste money.. your advice pls ... tx so much..
What did you mean about the Nikon DF, it have the same sensor, but is smaller and has the newer technology inside. The Price is also around 1k. I have the D810 and I love the more MPs.
Ken you are the only other person iv heard use that car annology accept I compare 1970s impala for $20G or a Kia whatever for $28G great vid bro
Nice video, Ken. I think its much better for get D7100 for 300 USD and save money for great 17-55/2.8. In fact just for 850-900 USD now people can get really pro zoom lens with great D7100.
My main rig for the last five years. D7100 with the 17-55 works just fine for 80% of my shooting. D850 rentals for more pro gigs.
@@MrBassrazz I have and use most D3s, to be honest, but soon want to take second camera, because of not always is necessarly to use D3s, and D7100 can replace it in many situations, also want to take telephoto zoom, maybe 100-400, crop sensor is great for it, will make it even longer.
Aww dang, I just subscribed last night (I work nights) and I bought a D700 within 2 hours of watching you, I hope I don't start buying at this rate everyday, you going to cost me a lot 😅
How do you like your d700? What did you upgrade from? I'm looking to buy d750 but the price of a d700 (both used) sounds way better. I'm moving from d 7100.
@@julitazebrowski2449 I love it, it's heavy,chunky,but that's part of why I love it. It's images just look like a vintage old camera but with just the right amount of new technology. I do wish it had WiFi capability though,it would be a lot easier to transfer images if I'm not printing them large. It's not as easy as today's smartphones to make a good image without all the computer algorithms,but when you make the right exposure the images are so artistic. No computations from a phone can take those creamy photos. I got a older vintage Nikon lens that makes it even heavier and better. I have a newer D7200 24mp that I like and it's more advanced,but the D700 gives me more dramatic images I feel.
@@MrFordguy73 thanks for your reply! I did buy the d700, I got it a few days ago. Still haven't had much time to give it a good try, but every time I try I like it more and more. I think ill hod on to it until everyone goes mirrorless and d850 will go down significantly. I'm also thinking of d4 as an option. We'll see! 🙂
Is the D750 not worth considering at around the same price of $1100?
The D4 great but it's hard to find one that hasn't had all the life squeezed out of them.
They’re workhorses
If landscape is your game. How about the D800 or D800e for a best value option? Do they have the autofocus issues similar to the D810? Thanks Ken

I've got a D300 and have since it was new. I'd love a FX sensor, but most important for me is support for all the amazing old pro manual glass going for peanuts.
With the exception of the newer Nikon D7500 and the low end D3xxx/5xxx series cameras, every model Nikon from 2010 or later can support Ai/Ai-s lenses as well as the older AF-D (screw drive) lenses.
I had many Nikon DSLR cameras, more than 10 and all of them are great even crop sensor cameras.
I can continue using crop but lens is a way mater for me.
The Nikon D4 - and its amateur oriented sibling, the Dƒ. I wondered whether the 16mp of the Dƒ was enough; my optometrist had said 12mp was enough. When I got the Epson Surecolor P800, with its 17x22 inch print capacity, I was amazed at the quality of those big prints: 16mp is more than enough if that's as big as you're going to print. Don't need all those megapixels, need those "big eyes".
jganun I have a DF as Well and was also amazed at the large prints at 16x20. I think most of us are not making huge prints, and if that’s the case, then I think 16 mp is plenty. Btw, the DF really feels more like a Nikon film SLR and I find myself taking photos and not concentrating on gear.
Hi Ken, I bought a D800 with 50K clicks for $600, thanks for your advice
D4 is my bread and butter shooter. I prefer my D4s (The autofocus is way better) but it has been in the repair shop for too long.
I own the d4 and d700 and they are fantastic!
Have the "low end" D7200 and love it but eventually would love to add the D500 (I like BIF) and D4 for FF....would really love the D850 but a bit beyond my budget at the moment.
I have D7100. Good camera. So far the only improvements I need is to get up earlier or get a boat instead of standing on the coast.
An interesting review. I am content with my Nikon D610. But it is good to hear the opinions and reviews about other Nikon cameras.
D610 is great, I own one, but it was marketed as a consumer camera so Ken will never recommend it
@@arrangearrange That is interesting. I was wondering why he doesn't talk about it.
i rented that camera for a wedding gig. it’s great in daylight but horrible in low lighting. I have the d750 and it’s amazing in low lighting and has a great dynamic range
I’ve had a D600 since it came out, and still use it for real estate and portraits. In my experience the sensor is excellent, but the files always need work in post, unlike the D700 or D850, which look great straight away.
@@djtoman6875 It is good to hear your comparison of those cameras.
D4 Nikon on eBay is $2,700 or you can get a D800 Nikon for $1,500 or a D810 I kind of in the market for a 30 plus pixel
Well one of the best portrait shooter Dani Diamond used a D800 and a D810 for a long time so its good enough for average joe too
What about D750? Is it any good? Thank you
I think we have to much reliability on auto focus of course depending on the picture. I grew up manually focusing.
I just saw your video. I took your advice and nabbed the new D4 for $1200. I think your video will cause the prices to go up. I want the low light capacity for use in underwater video and stills.
Using an old d3100 that I had for years. Looking to upgrade in about six months to d500
Funny but you said the Nikon D7200 was MUCH worse than the Nikon D7100 a few years ago Haha ! I tried the Nikon D7100 and 7200 and thought the 7200 absolutely blew away the 7100 ! But anyway usually I love the reviews you do but I've caught you a few times over the years going backwards on a prior review. Its all good, at least you correct the latter .. I just feel sorry for the people who bought a 7100 over the 7200 listening to the older review
Thoughts on Z50?
I'm looking to get into FX photography, and am planning on getting a Nikon D600. The D4 is too expensive, sadly. I know it has some issues, but since it's just a starter camera meant to be as cheap as possible, I'm not planning on keeping it for a super long anyway - as long as it lasts for a year or two I'd be satisfied. Maybe I'll consider a D4 by that point.
D610 and 600 are both lemmings
@@kathodosdotcom Is that due to the oil on the sensor issue?
Get the D610, issues have been fixed on that dslr, I have one, it’s a great FX camera that yields results beyond your expectations.
Five years ago swapped my D600 for a Fuji X-T1. Was blown away and would never go back, a few years later I upgraded to a X-T3 and its faster , better autofocus but the final results are barely better the the XT1 or my X-T2. Try one you may be amazed how top notch crop sensors compete very well to ‘so-called’ full frame cameras.
@@garymanning4578 Thank you for the suggestion - I'll look into that!
I use a D3 and I would pick the D4 from the cameras mentioned in this video 🙁
When are you doing the 2021 edition?
Thank you ken
All the camera mention is still much more better and "new" comparing to my still in action D80. Have a nice day!
I agree on cameras, although with a car, if you spend $10,000 on a new car you won't have to spend anything else for three years. With a $10,000 German car, you're spending $5,000/year in maintenance to keep it to a high standard.
I trade used camera equipment (mainly Nikon and Canon) and couldn’t agree more, I have a D4 for personal use and rarely want to pick anything else up.
The D3s is phenomenal value for money, I’ve got those priced between £390 and £500 at the moment. D4’s, got 5 of them in varying conditions between £700 and £1300. But, the D3 and D700 have also taken a massive slope in value, I sold one yesterday for just £150, I’ve just had to drop all the prices as I’ve ended up sat on them for months on end and still their struggling to sell. Why? I’ve no idea, most likely other RUclipsrs brainwashing people that they must go mirrorless.
I used to have a D810 when I shot full-time and they are brilliant, between £650 and £900. But, the problem with those is the D800, which are far cheaper by comparison and not really much less camera. The D600 is now pretty much cheaper than the D7100, both are sat around the £300 mark, I guess that’s thanks to Sony. £300-400 for a 24mp FX body is great value considering the capabilities of the sensor, I know the focusing systems ain’t the best and they had issues upon release but now as a used buy, exceptional value for money.
With Nikon there’s so much to choose from for so little money that I don’t understand why people are jumping to Sony. You’re talking A7r or D800, A7sII or D4, etc. And because they don’t get replaced so often there’s a lot less money to loose. Plus, an amazing array of cheap glass 🙂
PS - Saw a D4 with 1,000,000 (yes 1 million!) clicks on it and it looked barely used, would love to see what’s left of an A7 after that sort of useage 😂
where are your listings for the d4"s at im thinking of buying one.

Just bought a D700 and a D4 !!! Call me crazy in 2022 🤣🤣🤣
Both great camera bodies, excellent choice!
Tad bit more of color depth on the D4, tad bit better iso on the D4s (neither really noticable)
I recently bought a new Nikon D500, along with several second-hand lenses, for indoor sports like hockey and basketball. I'm getting phenomenal photos from it. You can see the sweat dripping off the players faces when using the Nikon 70-200 VR.
Shishkiboom been using that camera since it was released for food, commercial, sports, events, models and more. Great camera
They are incredibly fast cameras too. You can't fill up the buffer. One of the best cameras out there for action. They do tend to blow highlights though.
Agree completely! I bought a new D500 and a new 70-200 FL ED VR for shooting swimming meets. Photos were breathtaking. Do you own the 24-70 2.8 VR? I bought a used 17-55 2.8. It's no comparison to the 70-200. I am thinking to get the 24-70 2.8 VR even I would miss 17-23 range.
@@jamesw4445 I also have the 17-55 2.8 but would prefer VR for sports/action photography. I don't have the 24-70 2.8 but it's something I will look into. (I don't have the steadiest hands in the world, so VR is always helpful. lol). When it comes to sports, The 24-70 range would work for me because I usually only go down to 17mm if I'm shooting a group photo at close range. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@Shishkiboom In the same boat. I plan to buy a new 24-70 VR in 3-4 months. I bought a used genuine MB-D17 battery pack from ebay and it helped a lot: better balance and double the batteries. On top of that, very cooling looking.
I agree on D810 auto focus issues. Bad low light and not impressive speed even on the 70-200VR II. I sold it within a week. Awesome images though.
theoria what do you do w yr photos? sell them?
