It is not so much that it exceeded my expectations, as I expected a whole lot, what with it being a Nikon and all. What it has done though, is allayed my fears of what could have been. But now I do still have to learn to use it as it should be used, and how to handle the incredibly large jpeg and NEF files (both at the same time) that it seems to create.
I have the "big city" phone book sized Owner's Manual on order, so when that gets here and I start researching and reading, perhaps good things will follow?!?!
Meanwhile, I also need to learn how to make my "confuser" properly shrink some of the images I've been trying to post, so that they can be shown here.
Once I get past those hurdles, then perhaps I'll be taking some photos of things you all would enjoy seeing!
