Nikon D600 with the “Holy Trinity” of Nikkor lenses

Nikon is running a special on the D600. Yesterday was the first day and it runs until December 29 if you want to make this purchase and save $700. I wish I had waited, but it has been fun using the D600 for the past month.

Basically, you get the Nikon D600 with a $700 lens for the normal D600 price without a lens. You also get a free camera bag, 2% back, a 32 GB SD card, and a $100 Amazon Class on Demand card. If you were thinking about buying the D600, buy it now as this package will increase in price by $700 soon.

My outfit pictured above with f/2.8 lenses is with different lenses than that offered in this package deal. I would have sold the 24-85mm lens, but that isn’t difficult to do for near full price on Craigslist or ebay.

Stanford blocks a University of Oregon attempted kill by Martenne Bettendorf

Both Stanford and Oregon have made it easily through the first two rounds of the 2012 NCAA Women’s Volleyball National Championship Tournament. Later today, they both play again. Oregon goes up against BYU and Stanford takes on Iowa State. If they both continue to win they can meet in the championship game on December 15 in Louisville, Kentucky.

Today’s photos were taken last month when these two teams met in Eugene.

I’m not sure how much of this photo is an optical illusion caused by my angle, but (considering the ladies around Carly are all about 6′ tall) doesn’t it look like Carly Wopat can leap about three or four feet into the air straight up?

I purchased a new laptop that I’ve been working on the past few days. As such I don’t have access to any photos other than those I recently took so no Japan photos today. I hope you don’t mind this image instead of some U of O cheerleaders that I took earlier this month at a University of Oregon vs. Stanford game.
