Life in Lagos, Nigeria & Our Travels

Bob and I moved to Lagos, Nigeria in April 2007. This blog basically covers what we do in our time outside of work and is meant to keep family and friends updated on our activites and travels. We are having a great time and I think we are making the most of living in Nigeria. DISCLAIMER: This blog is not meant to be a comprehensive summary of all Nigeria has to offer. I may have different interests than you and therefore may not post on topics or places that you might like to see.

I got a Nikon camera, Love to take a photograph

While on vacation, I made the big purchase. I bought a digital SLR camera, the Nikon D90 with an 18-200mm lens. I decided to GO BIG as I was frustrated with some of the photos with the point and shoot, especially the Namibia safari. The Canon SD800 worked great for most pictures and video, I felt I needed to step up, and, oh yeah, I ran over the Canon in Cameroon, though it still works.

Here are some reviews on the D90.

First gripe: What the heck! Why is the battery charger 110V only.? Hello, don't most people like to travel out of 110V territory! Now I have to find one online.

Any other websites or books you would recommend? I have lots to learn.
