Thanks, I love my D90. It has pretty much all that I'm looking for in a camera. Sure, a full-sensor such as the D700 would be nice, but realistically speaking, I don't need that. I upgraded from my D60 that I didn't find adequate, I missed the front and back dials on the camera, as well as a better high-iso performance.

If you're considering upgrading, I probably wouldn't if I were you. All you get is a 2.4 megapixel upgrade, a pretty useless video mode, and some other functions that I wouldn't call revolutionary. You could argue that the picture quality is better though, but it's different. I'd invest in some glass instead. :)

Thanks. This little guy is at the PPG Aquarium at the Pittsburgh Zoo. There aren't too many of these in Aquariums since their diet is extremely picky.

It's called a Mandarin Fish.
