[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 95765, member: 10543"] I was in your shoes just a year ago when I left the 35mm world. I too was stunned at the menus and selections and found that sitting in my chair while reading the manual was not helping much. I resolved to take a sunny day with me alone and drove to several good spots where I could quietly read the manual and experiment with shots without any hurry. It was time very well spent and I recommend it. I recall sitting trackside waiting on a train that day and noting with alarm that I couldn't get my D5100 to exceed 1/250th shutter speed. I knew that wouldn't work, so I paged again to the ISO section and found the setting to increase its range. My photo came out sharp and beautiful, and my happiness and confidence began to increase. Enjoy your D5100! I'm still madly in love with mine. [/QUOTE]
