I am purchasing a Nikon D5300 pkg with two lenses VRII 18-55, and VR 55-300.
I take all kinds of photos from scenic to family to hobbies to macro shots of things like watches. I tour on my Goldwing motorcycle. Been to every state in NA (including Alaska where I took a couple thousand pics) except for Florida. Having lived there for 7 years, I just haven't found a good reason yet to go back.
Total novice with good cameras, but I know I am discerning enough that I am not satisfied with the pictures my current camera takes.

Welcome to UHH DerBiermeister, glad you joined us. The only dumb question is the one that you did not ask. We all had to start at sometime. I also shoot Nikon, presently the D7100.
Have fun, learn and enjoy the forum.
