When Nikon offered free camera and lens rentals for the night, I decided to test out their D300, a 14-24mm, and their 50mm 1.4f. It was nerve wracking knowing that on top of my own humble Canon set up, I had an extra $4500 worth of equipment around my neck. It was hard to resist running out the door and starting life anew as a fugitive.

Even though most of my shots did not come out, I have now tasted the fruits of a full frame camera, and have decided to make it my mission to get one this year.

C'mon tax refund.
