[QUOTE="Into The Lens, post: 66588, member: 10169"] Hi everyone, My name is Ben and I'm new to the forum. I've been lurking around for a while and I decided it was time to join in for good. My interest in photography started in the '80s at the age of 13 when I received my first (and only!) camera - a Nikkormat FT3 - which I still own and cherish. I have a graphics designer college dedree and work background, although I've stopped working in that field for quite a while now. I learned the basics of darkroom and film developing in college and, thankfully, I can find my way in Photoshop - which I guess is good thing since I still haven't made the transition to digital yet! (besides owning a compact CoolpixL5). Which brings me here since I am now looking for my first digital reflex (P90? P7000? Other?). I mainly want to shoot portraits and concerts/events like shows at music festivals (outdoors) and in clubs/bars (indoors w/ poor lighting), also shoot landscapes and architecture when I travel. I realize the learning curve is very steep, so I'll be relying on you guys quite a lot. I hope not to bother you too much with all my silly questions. ;) FYI, I do know what ISO, shutter speed and apperture refer to - I'm just not sure yet how these terms translate to the digital world. Looking forward to reading you all, Ben Oh, and yes... I'm a YES fan (Into The Lens) [/QUOTE]
