Greetings all. My name is Frank. I live in Prescott AZ, having transplanted two years ago from upstate NY (Ithaca). My brother gave me a D3100 a couple of years ago, but I wasn't crazy about the resolution so I decided to buy a used D5500. So far I'm happy with it. I haven't been into any serious photography since the 1970s; my last camera was a Minolta SRT101. I took lots of pictures and developed B&W pics with a friend.
Now I'm retired and getting back into it, hence the purchase of the D5500. I've been exploring filter sets, not needing anything top-shelf. Suggestions would be appreciated.
Also, I've been considering using this camera for videos of my band, and am having real difficulty locating the EP-5A and EH-5A AC adapter. I found some 9v knock-offs, but I'd prefer to get the 7.2v. Some reviewers said the 9v models fried their cameras.
Thanks & regards,
Frank
