The D40 finally arrived yesterday, and it’s totally sweet, but I’m still a little scared of it. It has 7000 buttons and switches, and they all have multiple functions that I’ll have to get used to. We went out last night so I could photograph some neighbourhoods in the dark— Antalya has pretty lights and a lot of bright colours and it all looks especially nice after the sun goes down. I don’t have anything spectacular yet, just the above shot. Right now I’m working with a ratio of about 200 shots per 1 keeper. That’s the magic of digital, you can play around all you want and not feel like you’re wasting film.
Bear with me, this is the first camera I’ve ever owned that had a learning curve.
Congrats! How cool. I totally need to get a new camera .. maybe one w/ a little less learning curve than you just got! lol

I have camera envy. If the above shot is what that thing can produce, I am REALLY envious. Have fun with it and I am sure we all look forward to your photos from it!

@Sprite I’m getting the hang of it now… buttons and switches are overwhelming for me at first. 🙂
