I'm trying to learn the ins-and-outs of my new d40. I took a free class yesterday, learned about some of the settings, took extensive notes, and then forgot most of it. I've just been playing around with the settings, hopefully it'll get better with time (and practice). And perhaps I'll shoot live subjects soon.
What I should be doing:
-Reading chapter 17 in my chemistry book
-Finishing my chemistry homework
-Doing pre-calc homework
What I am doing instead:
-Joining d40 groups on flickr
-Downloading gimp
-Uploading photos
