Nothing like a new camera to make you feel smart as a box of rocks!

Yes, I'm shooting everything in RAW. It's amazing what kind of editing you can do with that. Fixes a LOT of lighting issues and errors....I just wish it could fix fuzzy, too. :P I also wish I could afford the real editing software like Lightroom or Capture. Ah well...someday.

Thanks for the encouragement!

I turned mine on so I didn't have to mess around with the white balance all the time.

i still adjust the white balance even when shooting in RAW. Then again, I usually shoot in a studio so its easier.

Just took my D3000 back for the 3100

What a difference!

Judy-did you get the cd's with the camera? Theres an editing program in there
