YIPEEEEEE!!!!!!

How long do the new batteries take to charge?

EDIT: OK, the instructions say the batteries take about 2 hours to charge.

That was faster than we thought, wasn't it?
Do you have any lenses?

About 2 hours, but go ahead, give 'em a try now = )

It was fast. Kerrisdale Cameras was wonderful, I'm looking forward to meeting the people there in person this Summer. I have only one lens (besides the kit lens), a 70-300 mm f/4-5.6.

Don't you have to wait until they're fully loaded?

They'll still work, just not as long as a full charge. I've heard from posts on dpreview.com that they work well right out of the box without charging at all, but I can't verify that.

OK, my very first picture with the Nikon:



That's all the boxes/packing material on the sofa. Hopefully the pictures will get better. This is a lot bigger camera than the two prior digitals I had, and heavier than my old SLR I think.

Congratulations!!!
