Thank you for the reply Steve.
I hope to buy the D2X this year.
I'm also not a fan of the Nikon software, alternatively there is the plug-in for PS and there is a freeware available called RawShooter essentials 2005, you might download and give it a try, at least there is a few options.
Thank you for the reply and I hope you don't mind if I check back with you later before I buy mine.

spring with snow so deep, wow !
very nice capture, nice composition.
I like how you capture the snow, the one on the roof has shown wonderful texture, while it's so smooth on the ground

Spring in deep snow country means having wonderfully long days with moderate temperatures so we can play in the snow with skis, dogsleds, or snowmobiles. We are gaining a bit more than 6 minutes a day of daylight, so the snow will go quickly as temperatures rise.
Lee, I've had the D2X for a little over a week. I'm pleased with the image quality, feeling it edges out my Kodak SLR/n in detail. I have not yet learned to "feel" what my lenses will do with the crop factor of the smaller sensor. For now, I find that somewhat annoying, but as I grow accoustomed to the crop factor effect, I'm sure I will love this camera. I do not like the Nikon software, and I've found a few problems with Bibble as a raw converter (it creates "multi-frame" tiffs, which screws up another program I have that I use to caption and keyword images using IPTC data)

Very unique Steve, I do like this.
Have you had your D2X long enough to form a opinion of it ?
Have a good day.

I would think that the handles would be hot as blazes since they are made of metal...

To answer a few questions: The smoke was so dense that it obscured the sun completely on many days. That particular morning the smoke was dense enough that you could look at the sun without hurting your eyes. For fun, I turned my camera at the sun, and saw the sun spots. I shot a series of images, and then downloaded them to the computer. I found that the sun was still too bright on my photos compared to the background, so I processed each raw file twice in Adobe PS. By underexposing one image I got the sun to look as it did when I shot the photo. Then I took the same file, and processed it for the background, so I raised the exposure to make the background look as it did to my eyes. I then merged the two versions of the same image, and the result is what you see. The sun looks pretty much like it did when I took the photo, and the background is correct too.
