[QUOTE="WyoDuner, post: 158393, member: 14602"] Hey everyone. Found this forum and liked wht I saw so decided to sign up and become a member. I recently bought a Nikon D5200 kit from Costco after years of wanting a DSLR. Over the past 10+ years I have owned several P&S cameras with full manual control but was never satisfied with image quality and feature set so I finally took the plunge and bought the D5200 and am SO glad I did. First trip out with the new camera was to Grand Canyon and I have some pictures posted on my Flickr page of that trip (critical reviews welcome). I live in Arizona in the Phoenix metro area which I feel fortunate about since AZ is a wide open state with tons of public lands for photography and other recreation. I am primarily interested in doing night photography (Milky Way, Moon, etc), long exposure photography, some time lapse and other "technical" aspects of the hobby. I am an engineer by trade so tech skills are high but creative skills are almost non-existent.... :( I'll be posting some photos for critique shortly and trust the wealth of knowledge I have witnessed here thus far will help to make me a better photographer.
