Greetings to all. I'm new to Nikon but not to photography. My current arsenal consists of  a Nikon D5300, AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm lens and AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm lens. My last camera was a Yashica FX-3. I will be doing Travel , Landscape and Sports shooting. Hope to gain some pointers on the new technology.

Welcome to the forums!

 

You have a good basic kit to start out with. For sports, you might want a tele zoom that lets more light in to keep shutter speeds high and ISO low.

Delaware... I used to live there. Great memories! I'm sure you have explored and taken shots of Newark and Historic New Castle.They are two places that I still enjoy visiting.

 

How long have you had the D5300?

I've had the 5300 for three years, but have only used it for a couple of months. Been dealing with some health issues that kept me sidelined for a couple of years.
