Besides a memory card, and if anyone has any recommendations/ good links for a deal on one, what else would i need to get to start using my nikkon d3300 if anything? I have about 5 days to wait for it to ship, so im just trying to prepare.

And after you have read the manual the READ THE MANUAL AGAIN!!!Read the manual to learn how the camera works.
Patience and a willingness to accept that your images may suck when first starting out. But you are lucky to be in the digital age and starting. I started in the film age, and had to wait for my prints to come back to see how bad I screwed up. That and I had to keep notes on shots to learn where I screwed up. Now you have an EXIF to show you.
Also you need to have the desire to learn. Which now is also much easier, thanks to the interbutz. Just read, watch videos, and learn all you can, and put what you learn into practice.
And again patience, lots of it.
Haha derrel that's definitely something I'm working on. any tips hahah?You've lined up a hot,sexy model for the first day's shoot, right?
gotcha! thanks! doesn't the camera have to be connected to the computer to transfer the memory card data or is there something I'm missing?I would buy a second battery and a charger now and have it ready to go for when the camera arrives. Pick that up along with two memory cards, you don't want to stop shooting while passing the photos from the first card to the computer and even worse having to wait to recharge a battery.

Ahhhhh...some type of memory card reader is a common tool to have today; they are not very expensive. Most cameras do come with a connecting cord though, but the trend over the last 15 years has been more and more away from using camera-to-cord-to-PC connecting, and toward the current state of removing the memory card and inserting it into a card reader, and connecting the card reader to the computer.
