I am not quite a spammer but I never hesitate on shooting. Why save your shutter? Not like you take a few more photos will reach 100k so soon. And don't ever worry about reaching 100k and your camera will spoil. I used my ex D40 for 1 year+ and resulted in 20k+- shutter only (without saving shutter count). Heck, when I sold it it's still clicking perfectly.

OT: @edwardgsk you mentioned RAID 0, i've read about RAID in some websites but still can't get a hang of how to make my harddisks into RAID 0 or any RAID number.

Can u pm me a guide of how to change it? And is it possible to change to Raid 0 without format? thanks

Help you answer this off topic Q b3fore I go sleep.

IF 'm not mistaken, you need 2 go 2 your mobo and set it up from there. And I think you do need format. Raid 0 requires 2 same HDD's with same capacity.
Can't guide your completely as I do not know specifics bout you rig, but this is it la basically.

Can't be helped. Many new DSLR user very concern about shutter count one. They think 100k or 150k shutter count very easy to reach like that.
Think it as salary money. Even if earn RM3k per month, don't want makan or minum also think easy wanna save up till RM100k or RM150k meh doh.gif

You don't need RAID to be able to write at 60MB/s.

Depends, not usually without flash on the D700 biggrin.gif. ISO performance so cun, when shoot stage events can actually use their spot lights and ambient. The flash would just kill the atmosphere.

I rather have VG all the time, the camera feels more balanced. Else the lens so heavy hard to control. Believe it or not, the 70200 is easier to handle on D700. Much better balance compared to on D90. The extra weight on body do help smile.gif

You need to read the manual first at least.

P -> auto
A -> aperture priority, set aperture and camera adjust shutter for you
S - shutter priority, set shutter and camera adjust aperture for you (rarely used, unless you're doing motorsport panning where you want that specific shutter speed).
M -> Manual!

Why not just try it for yourself since the 18-55 is in your hands?
