It is my birthday today and I got a Nikon 990 with an18-200 lens. After I read the manual and get a bit of a grip on this thoroughbred (maybe in a couple of months, she said with a hollow laugh) the quality of WW and Photo Fridays should increase. At the moment, I am reading the Quick Guide and breathing through my mouth. I could do this once, long ago. Surely I can remember the SLR lore. Gulp.
Nice camera, great toy. Good luck picking it back up. I used to know how to do that, too. I did a photography course in school and all that... I'm sure I've since forgotten everything I learned.
ReplyDeleteYay! Happy Birthday. Great gift. Lucky us.
