I LOVE MY D3!
This has been my favorite camera for a very long time.
It is inconvenient and heavy to carry.
But I've always loved the output from it.
So when I went to Niagara Falls, it came along.
Unfortunately, it poured, but no big deal (D3!).
And then we did Cave of the Winds.
What a blast, and the D3 worked fine.
It was soaked, but it's weather sealed.
And so was my lens (16-35).
But then 20 minutes later, it messed up.
First one button died, then the focus points.
Ugh, my D3 was dying.
By the time we got back to the hotel, most buttons were dead.
So now it lives in rice for a week.
Is it totally dead?
I'll find out in a week.
