Hello everyone,

I am new to Nikon & DSLR. Previously have used yashica, minolta, fuji & canon. SLR experience with the first 2.

I just received my Nikon D5100 2 days ago and it came with a an 18-55 kit and a 55-200 AF-s VR lens. I will be visiting often to learn from those who have vastly more knowledge and experience and as I get more familiar with my Nikon, hopefully to be able to help other newbies in the future.

I am 64, ride long distance motorcycles, enjoy scenery and floral & people shots...

Welcome ... My very first 35mm SLR was a Yashica, and I still have it !

Small world, my first 35mm camera was a yashica electro 35 MC, still got it, but it's packed away in the attic as the seals need renewing as they went all sticky ....

For its time, and so easy to use and it took amzing pictures... especially night shots! Aperture priority mode and a tripo and it made you a wizard!

Dave,
Thanks for the welcome... You have some great photo ops out there! I have friends out that way and their pics always make me envious.
