Hello all, I'm Steve. What a friendly place this seems to be! Found it while searching for advice on taking the DSLR plunge. I did a fair amount of photography in high school and college 30-odd years ago, primarily b/w with a Pentax SP500. Kids, jobs etc. intervened; I eventually got a Nikon 6006 which I liked a lot but never had the time nor concentration to take full advantage of. Most recently I've been fine with a little Canon A620 (see gallery); now kids are heading to college and I have more time for a hobby (and I have a trip to Costa Rica coming up for which I don't want to rely on point & shoot).

Delighted to be here!
