You have to start somewhere, and a D5100 is a nice place. I love mine, and it won't be long till your using A and S or even M. Start posting pictures, and remember, ask for CC, but be ready for honest feedback, and sometimes a little harsh, ignore the few.

That's the great thing about digital, Pri. You can take tons of photos, using different settings and just discard the ones you don't like. Just get out there and play!!

Thanks for the warm welcome and the suggestions. I was looking for a good tutorial book and thanks for suggesting the books. I would buy one of them soon. In bestbuy I saw this DVD -- Blue Crane Digital - Introduction to the Nikon D5100 Instructional DVD. Is it worth buying the DVD?
