I've had my D3000 for a couple weeks now and I'm starting to feel overwhelmed. I bought some books on how to operate the camera and all of that, like you all suggested. I now have an okay understanding of aperture, shutter speed and ISO. I get how they work...it still takes me a few shots and a few minutes to figure out what settings I should be using a and tweak them. But the more I read the forum (the beginner forum!), the more discouraged I get. I keep reading of metering, different filters, white balance and all of that stuff...the books I read must have been VERY beginner books, because they don't really go over that. I guess what I'm asking is this...when did it start getting easier?? Was there a time that the huge amounts of information being thrown your way finally clicked and you got it?? I sure hope so, because I'd really like to get the hang of this...
