picture 1 is not bad at all, here s my tips for u ,

scenery shot like this, use manual mode, set high aperture to f10(try f22 too) above,
set a low shutter speed, try with few aperture, u will see alot of nice white blurring water flowing down like clouds.

a tripod is a must , if u have 1, and use a remote trigger to prevent camera shake.

thanks for the tips, will practice more evyday...hehe
tripod really help a lot

personally i will still choose d3000 to start now, never hold d40. d5000 liveview n doesnt impress me much, its like a extra features to me. if i have the budget, i will go for d90.

now looking to add a flash and prime lens
thinking of nissin di622 and 35mm f1.8 afs

any idea?

i love my D60. Don't care if the new models got live-view, more focus points (actually I'm upset about this part).
for me what camera you use, doesn't matter. its what you do with it!  flex.gif

by the way, its up to you. do you feel you always go to places where you would need an external flash? if you do, then go for the flash
and if you always feel you need a better lens for different situations, get the lens.
good luck  smile.gif

you are absolutely right, pros can even shoot nice pics with his 2.3 megapixel hand phone. So d60 is already more than u need to make a nice pics. Well if u going pro where u shoot event and wedding where u earn money from photography, then u may consider going semi pro like d200/300/300s/700. d3/x/s is more for serious sports and animal shooting national geographic  type of pros. A rich player can get all those and act like a pro but he is not a pro  doh.gif

aperture is not right then, try with 12 all the way to 22

landscape pics always with low aperture, it will capture everything crystal clear.

nice try mate

oo...i will try it tonite
heheh...thanks for the advise rclxms.gif

Added on November 5, 2009, 2:50 amNow start thinking bout lens...hehehe...can suggest?like more bokeh..

you bought a D3000, i assuming u r a newbie in photography..
try to play around with the kit lens 1st...then only think which lens suitable
a flash is a must when u taking a indoor event...
1855 generally is a very good lens for daily purposes...

50mm should be nice but D3000 dont have body motors. hence u need AFS lense.
btol ke aku ckp ni? rclxub.gif

u might consider a 35mm F1.8 AFS which design for Nikon DX range
so far the only 50mm lens can AF on D40/40x/60/3000/5000 ->50mm AFS F1.4, but cost a lot
50mm non-AFS can be used, to train up ur manual focus...
