GAS Attack - Upgrading
May 24, 2015 11:30:32 #
Been looking around and getting a GAS Attack for a Nikon P900. Wife said, "Sell some of your photo gear."
So, if I sell my P510, which I have come to love, I can upgrade to a P900.
Only thing wrong with this baby is the little rubber guard missing on the right side where you rest your thumb.
Looked around and will sell it here on UHH for $175.00 plus shipping.
Comes with Camera, charger and 3 batteries and I'll throw in the Raynox Macroscopic Lens Model M-150 which clips on the lens itself and a flash drive (16gig) with the P510 manual on it.
PM me if interested.

Sorry what does "GAS attack" mean? I assume it isn't flatulence....

Gear Acquisition Syndrome - a compelling need to purchase some photo equipment, often the "latest and greatest"

I feel your paint I just had a GAS attach too I sold my D3200 with an 18-105 lens and upgraded to the new D7200 with an 18-140
So far it's a lot smarter than I am but I'm hoping to take it out on a test drive today.

Oh I routinely suffer from GAS then. Thanks for clarifying my problem :-)

Why do you want to upgrade from a camera that you"love?"
Is the performance of the P-510 lacking in areas where you need improvement for your photography?
I hate to tell you and I do not mean to be offensive that no new camera or professional lens will improve your photographic expertise. Cameras and lenses are only tools.
If you have the money to spend and you are pleased with what you are now creating as a photographer I will say that a dSLR should be your next step.

Right. I have the money and the P900 is advanced and more range. I use my D7000 with 5 varied lens about as much as my P510 depending on where we are going and how much 'Stuff' I want to carry.
Also loving is relative. I've loved all three of my wives but the newest one is 21 years younger than me and we've been married 30 years now.

Just sold my P510 to a guy in Cape Coral wanting something light to take photos of jewelry for Ebay. I used the Macro to show him the camera and he paid without bickering. Had it for sale for $180.00
Now to confuse the wife and get that 1 *ONE* P900 at Best Buy here.
