The Nikon D4s body went to a local guy who wanted it pretty badly. He met my friend to do the transfer of money for camera. In that meeting pleasantries were exchanged including the response to... So what do you do for a living? It seems that the guy shoots for the NBA. He does the arena shots with cameras hanging all over the venue, with remote control shutter releases. He has... count them.... 11 Nikon D4 cameras. And a "few" Nikon D3. Lenses? Start at something wider than 20 mm and go to 800mm. We figured he carries about 300 pounds of equipment to each game..... And makes a good living of it, considering where he lives..... He will not use a camera that is not top of the line. ( and has the name Nikon on it).
