I did it!!
I finally did it!!
Yes ladies and gentlemen, after much humming and harring, I finally got around to treating myself to a Nikon SLR.
The D3200 to be model specific, which from what I've read, is a great beginners model for new photographers. A high end beginners model at that.
It came with two lenses, a standard 18-55mm lens and a Tamron 70-300mm lens. Which both seem pretty decent for the quite reasonable price tag.
I did enjoy a little play with it, so after work on Wednesday I went for a walk around Tynemouth snapping as I went. Unfortunately it was possibly the worst kind of day for photography....grey, grim, cold and rainy.
Despite me being aware I was shooting in rubbish conditions, it quickly became clear that it's not quite as simple as click and shoot on the old iPhone, I've yet to figure out all the different settings, this camera is going to take some getting used to.
If anyone has any advice they can share I would greatly appreciate it! Shout out to Mr Atkinson for his tips so far! ;) Cheers mate!

Personally I can't wait to get started on my photography journey!
I hope your all coming with me mind!
