| Hi all. First post for me. Just saying hello. I've been into photography on and off for 30 years now starting with a Fujica STX1N using Ilford HP5 and FP4 when I was still at school. Enjoyed the darkroom side of things very much. Anyway, wife, life and two wonderful kids later (who are now old teenagers!!) I'm back to it. - sort of a mid life want to rekindle an old hobby type of thing. Just brought a mint condition second hand Nikon 3200 with stock lens plus also a 55-200 nikkor af-s. Recently took 651 photos in three days whilst on a family trip to London and enjoyed it greatly. I like candid photography and looking for the unusual in the normal situations. I have found my old copy of PShop CS2 and its now time to get up to speed on that again. The boss and I are both 50 this year so we have decided on a trip to New York next Spring. By then I hope to have a 10-24 Nikkor in the bag to. Anyway - thanks for a great forum, looking forward to helping and being helped! Cheers

Hi Ajac, welcome to the forum.  CS2 should be interesting if you can find an OS which will run it! I think most people are running Lightroom nowadays, very capable for 99% of needs, most adjustments, keywording, face recognition, map location, slide show, web publishing and other features. Let's see some photo's!

| Welcome to the forum Ajac, CS2 is very adequate but I think that you will need something like Lightroom 6 to process any RAW files if you want top quality. Out of camera JPG will however get you started.

| Welcome, new boy You're in the right place to stir your interest. Be careful or you will likely wind up with a serious case of GAS (gear acquisition syndrome). If you ARE infected, don't fight it - we all have it and just learn to live with it. Have fun in NYC...the wide angle lens will definitely by your friends there. tom
