Hanukkah in my case, but still early for that. 
We host the family celebration every year and we're doing it a week early to accommodate schedules. I think my mother in law wants me to hav it for the party on Saturday. I'm cool with that! I am hoping to get up to Santa Paula on Sunday to try it out but the weather forecast is looking pretty cruddy, so we will see.

I hope I find a mother-inlaw that likes me that much. First I gotta find a wife.
Congratulations on the camera upgrade sir!

Cheers fellas. I eked what I could out of the D80 and got some reasonable shots (I know, to everyone else they were great). I say that because after some test shots yesterday, the capabilities of this camera floored me! I haven't set it up completely the way I want yet and the results have been amazing. The color depth and representation of the sensor is phenomenal! Vibrant, rich, Fuji Velvia type color. I am really looking forward to pushing it through it's paces at the airport.
Here are some test shots around the house yesterday. It's raining and yucky outside, so it may be a while before I get any airplane shots.

Excellent! I really like the water droplets on the leaves. Very sharp, you can see light changes within some of the droplets. Very cool. 
Still trying to figure out the first shot. Looks like the hood or trunk of a car but not sure. Could be through glass to.
And your shots of your children are always great.

Thanks guys. I was hoping to take the new camera out to Santa Paula over the weekend, but the rains were relentless.

It's a bit of a drive to get down there, Wayne.
A new experiment yesterday with the new camera. It's always a challenge to shoot under stage lighting, but this new camera made it a breeze! I took this shot at ISO 3200, and it is amazing, very little grain and the clarity is phenomenal in comparison to high ISO shots with the D80.

Mine goes to 3200 and is very grainy, thinking about a newer model maybe. Great photo to Eric.
