Re: found an inexpensive monitor......finally
 

Your post prompted me to actually try it out - I haven't had time to use the camera in movie mode yet. Yes, it works a treat. You see all of the information that would have been in the viewfinder.

Now I just have to find my way around the camera - it's not quite the same as the D200s that I have been using for the past few years.

Yes, I've had the camera for a couple of weeks, but not had time to use it much.

I'm quite impressed with the quality of the few seconds of video that I took just now - birds on a peanut feeder. I hope to find more time to try it this weekend.

Hi,

I've just ordered a 669 bundle from Hong Kong like many of you have. Now I'm wondering what to expect when it comes to powering the charger, in terms of plugs etc. Can anyone confirm what plug it comes with?

I'm in the UK, so I'm guessing I will need some kind of adapter.

These Chinese suppliers are pretty au fait with our various requirements for plugs & normally provide the appropriate power supply or some sort of adaptor.

Thanks Nigel.

Looking forward to it. I was getting fed up with discovering some of my shots were in soft focus!
