have had numerous experiences late at night and early morning with them and none of it is pleasant.
back to NIKON D-5000. the best way to learn this camera is ashcan the manual and start taking pics on different settings. the trick is remembering which setting ya have it on. to retain all the info in the manual is wayyyyy beyond my patience level. knowing the menu is key.
sooooooooooooo.............go out and take (1)juan flavor on "auto". then go back to puter and download. check pics out, delete what ya dont like.
then go out and set it on "P" and repeat
then "C" and repeat
then "M" and repeat
und so veiter.
check out what ya come up with. you'll be surprised at what ya get.
composing pics is one thing. blasting away getting moving images is a blast picking out which one is best.
i try and carry mine ready to go at all times. ya never know whats gonna pop up.
i was hoping tee-gar woods was in rehab in wickenburg,az. and prowling around cuz i heard the national enquirer was offering 250K for his pic. LOL!
get to know an authorized NIKON dealer/repair. we have tempe camera and those guys are great. have been very helpful on my (2) NIKONOS underwater cameras as far as info on the nikonos IV and nikonos V w/strobe.
i have the luxury of my buddy who is a professional photographer as my mentor and some of the crap we have done while enjoying mass quanities of beers has been an ABSOLUTE BLAST.
some of the new nikon zoom VR lenzez(lenses) are so damn *****en for taking long range shots its pathetic. truly amazing the clarity.
