Ok so now I finaly got the Nikon D80 with 18-55mm & the 70x300mm did the basic setup but daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, if I only did my homework in high school ( and had a magnifiying glass to read the instructions)) & a few extra brain cells for sure!!

WOW what a complex machine, I just hope i got reasonable lenses to start out with.
Any help on the Armor, does th CD instruction help. Lense caps?? Gee I would love to shoot some bugs, how beautiful they are?? Any help & recomendations are appreciated.Would love to take a few camera classes too

Thanks Frog & Xia_Ke, just checked ot those sites and were\ extremely helpful.. I was thinking oh, no what did I get myself into again. The video is great, especially since I am new to the digital world. Much better absorbtion starting by seeing it on video then reading & applying. Just what I was looking for,,,,,,,,,,for now.

Step by step, frame by frame with a bit of help from my friends and....... Thanks Loads
