    I think the biggest reason why I sit through these videos is despite the fact that I my know the information that you’re running through, you make the videos entertaining so I don’t really mind re-listening to the information. Keep up the great vids man.

    Your blog/website really is reigniting my excitement for photography. Even though I’ve learned a lot of things you talk about in the past, your passion for photography – getting it right in the frame – creating really tight images is inspiring! please keep it up! Also, I really value your reviews of lenses like the sigma 70-200mm f2.8 and the thinktank – I mean those are some practical questions I had.

    Anyway, great job and I look forward to reading and watching more!

    Finally the secret is out! Good timing too as i’ve just taken delivery of my nice new D3000. Looking forward to learning :D

    I haven’t been able to use it yet as i haven’t got a lens! Was going to buy a 35mm 1.8 but think i’m gonna hold out till pay day and get the sigma 18-50 2.8

    So frustrating having it but not being able to take a pic… Bring on payday. The sites looking good by the way Jared. Keep up the good work.

    “fill the frame”
    “cropping sucks” and so on.

    looking forward to the fro guides :P of the SUPER SECRET project. hehe

    (unfortunatly, its not that easy to get some thinktanks here in europe though..)

    Hey Jared , I’ve just got the D3000 and have been surfing the net for advise and have come across a few reviews claiming this is the worst nikon dslr ever made. I’m glad to find your project as my confidence is starting to drop with this camera? What’s your view on this compared to say other budget dslr.

    • Jared Polin June 12, 2010 at 10:21 am -

      Scott, so many people over analyze equipment instead of just shooting. They also forget that the lenses are the major reasons why there images may be bad. Than they turn around and blame the camera for not doing what they think it should be doing.

      I have shown that the d3000 is a very capable camera and will continue to prove that fact.

      Drop me an mail if you have further questions and I will be pee than happy to help you out.

    Cheers Jared , I’ve been out all day shooting and i’m in the process of editing in lightroom2. For myself as a beginner, the quality of these pics , with a few tricks off your goodself are the best i’ve ever done.
    I’m really stoked! cheers again.
    Amazing portfolio by the way!
