Hey everyone! :D I'm a hobbiest when it comes to photography, and I have no intention of going into the money making side of photography. I have no studio and odds are I never will. I have a D3100 now but I have every intention of getting a full frame Nikon as soon as I figure out how to get...

Here is my very first attempt at selective color in a shot! I have no doubt I did it the hard way, but I hope you like it! Lol :D

Hi all! Do you have a favorite old lens you use on your digital SLR? Do you have one or more you bought for your digital SLR? Is there one you'd recommend ? Well for several reasons I have several older lenses. With the price of lenses being what they are that got me trying to think of some way...

Hi all! I'm just a newbie, starting my learning experience using my Nikon D3100, by sharing with you all my photos, as I hopefully learn and improve! My wife likes to collect small statuettes and such. Here is two of my first photos. :) And here is a small pill box in the shape of a bird. :)

OK I posted this here because I'm not experienced enough to understand more detailed critiques. But I welcome any and all advice from you more experienced members to help me improve. :) OK here it goes to the best of my recollection. I used my 105mm listed in my signature, with the camera and...

Hi all! :D There has been something that has made me both curious. How do you tell how many shutter clicks a Nikon has in it's history? Is there a display I can check, or is it more complicated than that? And what is a reasonable click count on a used Nikon if I were to be looking? If it is high...

Being on a fixed income that leaves very little money to splurge on my new Nikon and my NAS addiction. lol :) But I found a few lenses that were cheap enough so that I could manage to buy them, as you can see in my signature. So what older less expensive lenses would you recommend for members in...

This was a shot I tried with my xoom camera. :) I'm still waiting on my camera cord for the xoom. lol :)

I've been wondering. Is rain a serious risk to the D3100? Do the nikon DSLRs have some protection or are you taking a serious chance of ruining your camera when out in say a mild rain? I'm asking this because I just saw a photo of a nikon with water drops on it, and before that I assumed that...

Does anyone know of an easy way to make an Ai manual focus lens work on the nikon's D3100? The camera says there is no lens attached unless on M setting, and then the shots are so dark the shots are totally unusable. Though I admit those shot were indoors. The flash won't work either. Will I...

Hey everyone! I started a new group for those of us who love those close up flower and insect shots! I know I'm just a newbie here, but I really believe that this wonderful type of photos deserved to have it's own group! I dearly hope you seasoned macro vets will come and join up, to show us...

I have an interesting delema. I don't have a working computer right now, and it might be some time until I do. But I do have a tablet, and the question is how to make it work for my photos? I'm sure I can upload photos from this tablet, but can a tablet handle photos strait from a nikon? I'm...

Hi all! :) I'm very interested in taking Macro pics and landscapes but I also consider my D3100 as a start off camera for the next few years as I save up the money for a full frame Nikon. I live on a fixed income due to Social Security Disability, so price will be a huge consideration. I have a...

Howdy everyone! :) I'm a full Newbie for sure, new to this Forum and new to Photography! lol :) I got a new D3100 Nikon and I'm loving it so far. I fell in love with macro pics when I first started using a blackberry and often had a few downloaded onto my berry. So after few years I finally...
