I have the same camera for work, I use it for product shots, you will need to mess about with white balance, use full manual mode, you will soon find the settings that suits you, I can even take good pictures of clear liquids in glass on a white background, which is hard to do.

Enjoy the new camera Ralph. SLR camera are awesome, but take some learning. I had the hang of my Canon years ago but I've got lazy and just use my phone camera these days. I doubt I can remember the techniques using the SLR!

Back in print film days my experience with my Nikon F2 Photomic and later on the F3 higheyepoint were very successful. With lenses that ranged from 28mm to 600 mm I enjoyed a lot of options. They now reside in my closet and are redundant as compared to todays technology. Sad but true. Rick H.

Me too a confirmed Nikon user. Next step is to check out the software you can find to fine tune your pictures. Photoshop is the best in my opinion but you can find lots of others that are cheaper. Check out the NCH website for free stuff.
