What don't you like about the RAW files? (I may have missed a post on
this.) I shoot nothing but RAW and am quite pleased with the
performance of the D.

I'm certainly not going to gloat. Shel's misfortunes have got to be
very disappointing to say the least. I am one of the ones who bought
a "ln-" D from KEH and was off and running with an old KA lens and
512MB compact flash card from Walmart almost as fast as I could
everything together. Other than the RAW files, I'm very impressed
with the D and am having a lot of fun with it..

I'm sorry to hear of all the problems your having Shel. Your baptism
in DSLR ownership has surely started out in a shitty way.
This is why I prefer shopping in a reatil store. Sometimes the extra
cost is worth it. :-) Then again sometimes it's not <g>

Well, OK, not digi per se, but problems dealing with on line digi
stores.
The moment I ordered the DS, I ordered an SD card from
http://www.flash-memory-store.com/
At Godfrey's suggestion I ordered a 60X ATP card on August 29 @ about
7:00am. The web site (http://www.flash-memory-store.com/) guarantees
shipping the same day if an order is placed before 6:00pm.
The card wasn't shipped until Sept 1, which meant that in order for
me to
use the DS I had to drive to another town to buy an SD card. Flash
Memory
Store did not perform as promised. Today I received the memory
card. It
was not the 60X ATP card, but rather, a slower (much slower by my
estimation) plain vanilla no-name card.
I called the store to discuss the matter and ended up with recorded
message
about how important my business is to them, continued by the comment
that
no one can take my call now. <SIGH>
Anyway, I'm not writing this to evoke sympathy, rather, to alert you
to the
miserable service this store provides.
I could have purchased a card for a few dollars more from a store
that was
"slower" to ship, and gotten faster and better service.
