Crushed

We had a wee setback on the photography scene today...oof...yes that is my new 11-16 F2.8 Tokina lens...and yes, the D200 body is toast. Turns out that cameras that were made to stay above water...should stay above water. Who knew?

Lesson learned: if you're going to shoot in a stream with a tripod...be sure to secure and lock ALL THREE LEGS.

It' just the filter. I think the lens made it. Did it?

[weymuller]

@Richydudeman - you're right...lens is all good...and actually, so is the camera.

@skiluva69 There is no such thing as the best camera company. Otherwise the worst one would be out of business by now,

hahahah oh that sucks. well at least its a nikon and not a canon that got destroyed

[martinaee]

2 things that wearing protection for is always a good idea:

----> Sex

----> Camera Lenses

Was the lenses front element actually damaged? Or was the lens toast too anyway due to water damage?

700 dollars out the door?

@Transane I agree. Not sure what's so hard to understand. If you care about the quality of your still photos, you have to get a Nikon.

It's a Tokina.. I would feel the pain if it was a Nikon.
