TPF Noob!
I think I'm there. D90. Or will it get an upgrade at big show in Feb 2010? Rumors...
I've long wanted to get good at photography but never gave self time to learn. So now between jobs, gonna take classes. Also need to upgrade gear from Nikon F-601 film to digital SLR.
Can I use the existing Nikkor 100-300 AF lens I have without losing any capabilities with new Nikon D90 features?
Regardless, when/if I get D90 should I get it with the Nikkor 18-105mm lens or should I get a standard 50mm and some other variations? I ask this only from a picture quality perpsective. I anticipate doing nature shots, wilderness, sports, landscapes, kids and family. I also have some learning to do so can't take on too much at once coz I'll confuse self... Age... So I'm thinking 2 lenses with range from 18mm to 300mm total should be pretty flexible. But what am I giving up?
Also, which software to use? I have a Mac, so is iPhoto sufficient at this time?
Thanks!
