[QUOTE="Mister Bumbles, post: 381988, member: 34301"] Spent 3 hours working on an elderly ladies computer, and it kind of wrecked my back. After I finished with her computer I came home and tinkered with my new camera in the office a bit. It's so very different from my Canon 40D setup. A lot of the controls on the 40D felt very intuitive, even from the moment I first took it out of the box 7 years ago. The D610 doesn't feel intuitive. Options are not where I feel like they *should* be and I have to kind of go digging for things to find what I need. I am hoping I will build 'muscle memory' to be able to get into and out of these menus to find the right settings when I need them in a hurry! I also found out that all of my old graphics software is basically useless with NEF files. I have to run all of them through an NEF to DNG converter that is relatively slow, so you tell it to process, then walk away. My version of Photoshop is quite old for Windows, (CS2). I had CS3 on my iMac before the iMac went up in smoke in October. So now I am considering trying to find Adobe CS5 or CS6 on disc, or just biting the bullet and going for Adobe Cloud just to get Photoshop ($9.99 a month). Considering my budget, it's not likely that I can afford a disc-version of CS6, so I may be forced to go to the new 'cloud'-based Photoshop. Here's a little tinkering around this afternoon...
