:cryin: Very sad day!!!! I am no longer a member of the Nikon camp!!!! Sometime within the past 2 weeks, my Nikon Coolpix 8400 has come up missing along with the 2gb Lexar Pro card!!!!:mad2:

I think it possibly got thrown out in one of the buckets of papers that collect each week around here. I have occasionally set it in the bucket when going in a store before coming home so that it wouldn't be visible. We usually go thru these buckets to seperate the papers we keep through the next week, but it's the only scenario I can come up with.

We were getting ready to go shoot the oil refinery explosion in Big Spring, TX when we discovered it missing. Well, instead of shooting the refinery, I spent the afternoon going through the dumpsters since they hadn't been dumped all weekend, they were pretty full.

Only saving point is...IT WAS INSURED!!!

Moral...If you don't have your equipment insured, do it TODAY!! There are many ways...mine was on a rider on my homeowners policy!!!! It wasn't expensive and now it was worth every penny!!!!!!!!!!!

So, although I really liked my CP8400, it gives me an opportunity to get something newer...maybe a K20D!!!!!! :thumbsup:
