New to Nikon Photography

Greetings and salutations all. For years I've been interested in photography and always used those little point and shoot cameras when I was younger. A few years back I bought a Canon SX50 Powershot and loved it. But the time came to ramp it up a notch, so I invested in the Nikon D3400. I got the one that came with the two interchangeable lenses. A AF-P Nikkor 18-55 mm 1:3-5-5.6G and AF-P Nikkor 70-300mm 1:46-6.3ED. For photo editing I use Adobe photoshop 13 and Adobe Lightroom CC2015.

So far, I am loving it. I can definitely tell the difference between the two and do not regret my decision. I look forward to learning more about this camera and all it can do. Hopefully this is the right place for tips and critique.



Attached is one of the first few pictures I took using the D3400.

Welcome to the forum!

I stared in the world of DSLR cameras with the same kit as you - D3400 with 18-55 / 70-300.

The D3400 is an extremely capable camera and the two kit lenses you have are very pleasing. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the D3400!

Welcome!
