hello all,

I just pick up a new hobby (photography), bought my first DSLR in Easter 2008 this year. A Nikon D60, I bought this model because D40x was on sale, but when I got to the shop (after a week of deciding), they sold out, so the salesman offered me the D60 with a bit of discount, so I got the twin lenses kit.
I have been reading the manual, lots of "Popular Photography" magazines and books from my local library. learning to use the camera by trial and error.
So I am looking forward to learning a lot more from all of you.

cheers,
Harry
Regards,
Harry - new/beginner to DSLR world.

Hi Harry,

Welcome! I highly recommend that you come to the Melb meet as well. I am sure you will get some great tips from other members who use Nikon.

Cheers
