[QUOTE="dukatum, post: 300407, member: 23829"] haha I am totally one of those. One day my wife and I went on holiday. I've never owned anything more than the camera on a mobile phone. She brought along her snappy little point & shot. Being the man I took control of this object with buttons. When we got back we realised the camera was completely rubbish because for some reason all the pictures were "white and washed out and so bright". So we went out and brought her a "proper camera" one of those where you change lenses 'cause they make so much better pictures. 2 months after we brought my wife's Nikon D5100 I was hooked. I had no idea there was actually skill and technique involved in photography, as well as so many exciting buttons. I had learnt quickly that our point & shoot was actually a nifty little thing and it was user (man) error that ruined our holiday snaps. As a new year prezzy to myself, I found the D7000 and never looked back. I now recognise when to blame the camera (never) and blame myself (always). My wallet has never felt so light in my pocket before I discovered photography :greedy_dollars: and yes I am that guy who has to push every button in the elevator! [/QUOTE]
