Congrats Nice SLK, and from the tree photo, the stock lens is supirsingly OK (more so than Canon's stock lens)

I can't wait to jump on the D50 band wagon
Still getting familiar using a SLR and already taking some great shots! I should be posting a similar topic in the near future..

Thanks for the replies, I figured you guys would enjoy the SLK55 AMG pic too...
dutchmasterflex : If you haven't already, you might want to check out http://www.dpreview.com/, they have excellent reviews of many different cameras on there, including a really in-depth one of the D50...needless to say I highly recommend the camera, and from my pics you can at least get an idea of the picture quality.

Does the D50 have a 0.2 second start up time like the D70?

Yea I've checked out that site a lot lately.. I especially like how you can compare camera's specs side by side. I actually went to my local camera shop yesturday after work to check out the D50 (for the 2nd time). I asked for a SD card so I could take some sample shots but they wouldnt allow me. So your pics are just what I wanted to see
If you dont mind me askin, how much did you pick up your kit for?

Around $670 for the D50, 18-55mm Nikkor Lens, and a 512mb SD card, and free shipping. If you look around enough, or wait you might find it cheaper, who knows.

That's a pretty damn good price considering you got the a 512mb SD card and free shipping.. I actually just won an auction on ebay for the same 18-55mm lens kit for $642.. The seller is in my area too, so hopefully all goes well and I can pick up my new baby

wow nice shots! I like the backlit tree silouette..
I picked up sandisk ultra II 512mb SD last night thinking I would be able to pick up my camera yesturday. Seems like im gonna have trouble getting the seller to meet up in person... he/she wants me to make the payment online and then mail the camera to me even though I am only 5 minutes away!
