I am newbie to owning a DLSR, and I am very happy with my D3000, which I have had for just over a year,(A present from my wife).My other camera is a Sony digital, which i still use for my diving holidays. I am still learning about the D3000. I have just purchased a Jessops 360AFDN flash, and I am pleased so far. I hope i can learn from the experienced users from this forum to get better at photography.
