Hi everyone!
So my much anticipated Nikon D60 just came in and I'm loving it. I'm an absolute beginner to DSLRs and am a bit overwhelmed. I read through the instruction manual but things are still really fuzzy. I realize I shouldn't expect myself to know what can take years or decades to know, but I am excited to use my camera to it's full potential. Where do I start learning? I've considered buying the "Nikon d60 for dummies" book but I'm not sure if its worth it. What is the best way to learn? is it reading lots, taking tons of pictures and messing with settings until i learn what they do, or a combination of the two? I've been recomended "Understanding exposure" as well. Is this book worthwhile? any recomendations or help is greatly appreciated
