Chance bought me a new camera for an (early) birthday present!! I got it in the mail today!!! I got a Nikon D40 and TONS of parts & accessories. I've got a lot to learn though. I'm not too keen on all of the photography terms and methods! I've never had such a fancy camera.

Anyone have an opinion/advice for the Nikon D40? Any tips in general would be greatly appreciated. I've been using the Auto mode to do all of the shots. I'm definitely going to read the book that ACH365 recommended.

jamiemmiller I don't know much about cameras...but I'd love a better one...so it would be great to hear what you think of it once you learn how to use it! The pictures of the dogs are really fantastic!

jamiemmiller By the way, your question about school in Kansas City. I have to be back this Friday and school starts the 16th. I can't believe school is starting and we're in the middle of the worst heat wave in recent memory!!!

LeahMarie25 Wow, what a nice present! We've got a D50 and I always have to use the Auto setting. My husband has tried to explain all of the other settings and stuff to me, but I'm hopeless. I just call it "his" camera.
