Kinsay goy magpaulan sa ilang gadget on purpose. Pero sigurado ko nga at ease akong huna-huna nga kung kani akong camera ug mag-apil2x ko sa mga dagko nga festival contest, ug matimingan nga moulan pareha sa sinulog adtong January, dako na tsansa nga naa koy interesting nga photo sa event under the rain ug wala ko uban nakigdasok sa area nga masilungan.

Kay kung naay mga fast paced sporting event ug naka-mount akong camera sa tripod kay para diri blurred ang shot, maka-take advantage ko sa AF tracking within any of the AF pts. Unya dili nato kalimtan nga naay 9 cross-point system apil sa system para sa 3D tracking, instead of having only 1 sa uban nga camera units - including D90.

Okay, those who are wondering why their photos are pixelated when they print them from their home printers, here's a basic on image resolution for printing. Remember we are only talking about resolution here, there's a colors and other items that one needs to know regarding printing.
A 12mp is approximately 4288x2848:
If you are a conservative printer, you run it at 300dpi/ppi, that gives you 14'3" x 9'5", hmmnnn let us see, closest available paper size is B4 with the ff. dimensions 13.9 x 9.8 - and that is a little smaller than the standard poster size commonly used, is A3 - 16.5 x 11.7. Okay, we can stretch it a little while maintaining aspect-ratio, but you'd have to crop whatever exceeds the height or width of the target output.
Okay, let us say you're not conservative and you are fine with 240ppi as set on the camera by default. Running the resolution against 240ppi we get 17.87 x 11.87. The closest paper size? A3 - 16.5 x 11.7. Now we are talking plain raw size of the photo in full 12mp which can be printed straight out of the camera to A3 (common poster size) paper.
Billboard is a different beast when it comes to calculating visible sharpness of image when printed as you have to consider distance.
Here's a verbatim paste of a brief explanation:
Consider what matters; ie viewing distance.
An image that is say printed at 300 pixels per inch viewed at 1 foot is considered as sharp to many.
Thus this equates to:
An image that is say printed at 100 pixels per inch viewed at 3 feet
An image that is say printed at 30 pixels per inch viewed at 10 feet
An image that is say printed at 10 pixels per inch viewed at 30 feet
An image that is say printed at 3 pixels per inch viewed at 100 feet
An image that is say printed at 1 pixels per inch viewed at 300 feet
Thus a billboard that on an interstate highway that is best case 300 feet away only requires a 1 pixel per inche image. If it is say a giant 12 by 48 foot billboard; that image needs to be only 144 by 576 pixels; one 13th a megapixel. ie barbie cam; ie way less than a cellphones image of 4 years ago. If one gets a flat tire right by the billboard and one has pilots eyes the image still is sharp; since it is 300 feet away.
Amatuers will always argue that one could in theory go over the barbwire fence; dodge some mad bulls; climb up the billboards tower and see the flaws of a 1 pixel per inch image. Becaise amateurs cannot *box in* or define *viewing distance* or a print/poster/etc; overkill is often the preached dogma. One might have a billboard that is 300 feet away best case; that one has to trespass, risk ones life to see its flaws and folks will still preach 300 dpi/ppi; off by a factor of 300 to one.
And yes, paper print world preaches 300 dpi/ppi.
*dpi/ppi = dots per inch or pixels per inch respectively.

Dili ta daghan ug lens pero I'm sure everyone has at least two lens. Best guess, a 50mm prime, and a mid-range zoom. Frankly I'm still trying to understand Micro AF adjustment, but here's the thing, I bought a Nikkor 50mm, and (I just did a thorough check) found out the with the focus dial set 2ft the object at 2 ft isn't focused at all. I have a portrait project coming very soon, and I definitely can't risk having it warrantied (CDSC) and not get it back as soon as possible. If Micro AF adjustment is what I think it is, it would be really handy to have.

I shoot raw and metered to the left, a whole day shoot starting at 5am ending at 7pm can fill two 4GB SD cards. Each 4Gb card contains approximately ~380 photos.
If I'm not mistaken wedding photographers take more than that number of photos in a half day wedding coverage to get those insurance shots. I could be wrong. 
If you shoot for any commercial agency, and I think a lot hopes to be able to someday - I say don't use the second slot merely as a second storage device. Use it as a back-up copy. A sort of RAID back-up so to speak for people who know a lot about computers and back-up systems.

You missed:

We know you'll get one. I'm sure I'd pre-order one if I can afford it.
Anyway, just having fun replying to this.
p.s.: excuse the typos and grammatical errors, I'll correct them some other day.
