New Beginner

I didn't see any introductory threads but I just wanted to say hi.

Ive only been shooting for 2 weeks or so and have been using a D1 MKII.

so far i have been using manual focus for everything but i am looking forward to learning new things with this camera.

Thank you so much. I'll definitely look into them. Shooting is so addicting. I am currently going through the Tutorials and have already found them helpful. The literature they use in describing aperture has finally cleared the fog for me . Thanks again for the advice.
