Hey,

Just became a member to this forum and hoping to expand my knowledge in photography. I'm from Los Angeles, CA and like everyone else here , I love photography! :cheer:

Anyone using a Nikon D40? It would be nice to maybe get some tips and advice from others. Might post pictures soon for a first c&c. :thumbup:

Whats man....I am in Brooklyn NY...I just got my D40 and its pretty cool once you figure it out. LOL.

Tips: Play with the camera as much as possible and test it out on everything possible. Moving subjects, dark, daylight and all. I am still getting use to it. I am just getting used to it.

How's it goin'! I've got a Speed 3 lol, wasn't too costly, got a great deal at the time, but I'm sure now they're great deals all over. I've got a Canon XSi, still learning myself...
