[QUOTE="adairable, post: 88236, member: 11535"] Hi everyone! I am a new member from Hawaii. Originally from West Virginia/Virginia. I decided it was time to join and stop asking my only photography friend a bazillion questions all the time. Plus he moved to Germany and it makes it harder. So I just bought a used D200 (from said friend, he just got a new camera). It is my first "big girl" camera. I am using it daily but I want to know new things everyday and I am full of questions. Today's questions: 1. Is there some way I can re-attached the rubber pad on the bottom of the camera? My tripod tore it off and it's just loose in general. Along with a lot of the rubber areas actually. I think Hawaii humidity is just deadly on adhesives. 2. What kind of cleaning kit would you recommend? Links to amazon make me :) 3. What kind of tripod would you recommend? Please keep in mind I am a teacher on a budget ;) 4. What is the best website to host my photos? 5. Where do I start?! Right now I just shoot whatever tickles my fancy but being a teacher I kind of crave "assignments." Any recommendations on a regimen or workbook or a site or a free teacher, lol?
