Are you the kind of person who buys the new camera or new lens as soon as it comes out? or although you may want it, you wait until you have money or wait for the reviews?

It's always great to here about the latest and as much as I may want to upgrade, I generally hold on off until I read reviews.

I usually wait. But with mobile electronics, there are sometimes pre-order deals. I now have an Android tablet on pre-order, won't start shipping until early March, couldn't resist the price.

I always wait to check the reviews under real-world use. Let someone else finds the bugs and flaws. Same reason I would not buy a new car model during its first year.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

Depends, sometimes I have pre-ordered stuff, sometimes I wait. In referring to the new D800, I will get it but I won't be in a hurry and will not pre-order, preferring to wait and see which model I want anyway. Darn decisions!....:angry:

Why so serious?

Depends. If I've been waiting for it and I have the money I'll pre-order.

In the case of the D800, I've been waiting for it... BUT I don' t have the money right now... so I guess I wait. :o
