My parents got me Adobe Lightroom for Christmas, and I installed it last night. I had a lot of fun with it and went HAM on the adjustment bars lol. You can expect to see modified photos from me from here on out.





















Before adjustments.


After Adjustments.

Eric I am confused why you got a D3200 when you had a D90. The D7000 is the successor to the D90.

I was really really curious about the 24 megapixels and knew it was equipped with a audio in port. Also the ability to post from the camera to the android wirelessly.

A $50 EyeFi card would have let you post wirelessly as I have been doing it for a while. Not saying it is a bad camera but besides the 24mpg sensor, the sound port, and 1080p over 720p every other spec is the same or less than the D90 is all. You also gave up so exterior access to controls which I would never personally be willing to do. Not a fan of menus.

I was not meaning it to be negative comments but rather curious of hearing Eric's reason for the upgrade choice. Everyone has there own reasons just wanted to hear his. We all have our own opinions too. Sorry you took everything I said as negative.

In your comparison do you feel the D3200 or your D90 have more vivid colors?

Also your first video looks good Eric. Can't wait to see more.

Not butt hurt so no worries. Just don't want people to take something as an attack or put down when it wasn't meant to be.

Have you done any panning shots with the monopod yet? If not, why not sir?!

I will have to do a situational analysis between the two cameras where I essentially capture different objects with each camera using the same lens. The 3200 is already going to perform better in live view mode so nothing needs to be compared there.

And thank you for your first of many positive comments to come from you this year! I congratulate you on your ability to perform a task as such. Job well done Sir!! As a result of your positive comments, perhaps your brilliantly built Honda Accord can be captured in live view mode with my D3200!
