I have played with SLR cameras most of my life, starting cheap and working my way up the ladder to the better ones. What I have learned has been from trial and error. I got my D5000 last summer and have been in love ever since. I would love to take some classes and really learn more of what I am missing out on. I hope this group will be a big help also, it looks like you have a good time and share a lot of useful tips. Can't wait to learn more and become friends with you all.
