lawtai Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I was wondering if people had any webpages/books suggestions that I could take a look at for a beginner who wants to learn more about photography. I recently purchased a Nikon d50, and want to be able to take full advantage of using it. I've never really done more than P&S with the previous cameras I had either. I've looked through the pinned post, but was hoping to find some more resources for a beginner. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Brandon Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Read the manual. Sounds stupid, but the D50 manual is full of information and you can learn a hell of a lot from it; I know I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
