New Camera

March 3rd, 2011
My husband bought me a Nikon D3100.
I have been using just a simple Sony Camera.
Today I got all this equipment in the mail and I am shocked.
I dont know how well he researched the camera before he bought it.
Does anyone have and use this camera?
Any advice?

Oh wow, what a great gift! I don't have one, but I know I was a little overwhelmed with my dslr when I got it. But, my excitement for it overshadowed the nervousness, and I just learned it little by little.

Learning it is something I will definitely have to do.
I will also be doing it little by little.
I felt there was a lot I still needed to learn with the other camera.
He said it was a Christmas-Valentines-Birthday-Homecoming-Support/miss you present haha. I feel so special.

Does he need a second wife??? LOL Have fun playing..I'm about to embark on helping my gf learn her Nikon and I'm so jealous!

Haha I'm really surprised. He said to wait to open packages until he can Skype me.
I pulled the stuff out of the box one by one and then he said yeah I know whats in it. I said who is it for? HAHA

I definitely don't think I deserve a new camera and all the other goodies he bought to go with it. d

@rrlewis wow congrats, rachel! a) for getting the camera and b) for having a really sweet husband. :D i don't have the D3100, but i do have the D3000, which is a lot of fun to use and not as overwhelming as other DSLRs. the upgrades, i believe are the capability to shoot HD video (which really really passes like a pro when you focus manually) and live view shooting (like a regular digital camera where you can see the live image on the screen instead of the tiny viewfinder. :D
