[QUOTE="Tami Jo, post: 91408, member: 10397"] Welcome to Nikonites! Congratulations on your new Nikon. One thing I am going to recommend it read your manual from cover to cover. It will really help answer many of the questions you have and are sure to have in the near future. With the two above lenses referenced you should be set for awhile. Take your time learning your new camera and eventually you will know what additional lenses to add. There are so many lenses out there though and choosing can be a bit difficult. Ask lots of questions if you are unsure. The 50 f/1.8 is a prime lens which is a fixed focal length. The 80-200 is your zoom lens. That is a nice zoom range. It should really help you get close to your subject when you can not move close enough. If you are shooting in manual mode you must set the f stop/aperture, the shutter speed and the ISO. If you are still unclear of what each of these do try using A mode which is aperture priority. That means you choose just the aperture and the camera choose the proper shutter speed and ISO. You can also try using S mode which is shutter priority. That means you choose the shutter speed and the camera chooses the aperture and ISO. Manual mode means you do all of it.
