    That even when you put IMHO
    people will still get upset and take your post personally

    Yes, because every post you make without "IMHO" isn't your opinion. It makes so much more sense now. :P

    If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.

    @sevencrossing, I thought the two smilies I used indicated I was joking with you... It would take more than that to make me actually cry (most days...)

    Agree no problem stating opinions but when people make it personal and show no respect, then it gets uncomfortable for many. For 98% + of the time its fun with lots of good information and discussion.

    when I met with @Golf007sd this week I learned a few things among them
    I learned about panning and paralax.
    I will have to do that the chicago skyline this year but I will need him to leave his kit here with me for testing purposes.

    You learn a great deal with the NR members

    I'm a long ways from being able to give advice on here but everything I have learned to where I am now in photography came from this forum.

    I wish to thank everyone who has helped me and hopefully others have learned by your comments!

    I hope you all have understood that about 90% of my digital knowledge has been learned while present on NRF and other photo groups. But, shooting images is the way to develop techniques and over the weekend I learned a lot about capturing BIF.

    Not to listen to friendly folks who suggest, how much you will like this big new lens, that only costs $2700.00 + Tax...

    But it's so light, & you can carry it around all day, great for hand held photography too, and VR II is to die for...

    Ooooohhhh aaaahhh!! Hello, accounting? ;-) But I love it. The forum I mean!!

    the tread on AUTO ISO has made me more aware of how this feature works with flash
    ( I think I will still leave AUTO ISO off with flash)

    the thread on AF assist has made look more closely how this works

    At last I found how to set the spell checker on my computer.
    I hope to make less mistrakes now.

    Second, I listened to @Msmoto and @DonaldJose very carefully.
    From them I learned to be tolerant..., well I already was..., but my English is not my native language, maybe that is why one can read my post sometimes different then I mentioned. As all the members on NRF, I never mean things bad, think about it, why should we.

    I have a spelling checker
    It came with my PC
    It highlights for my review
    Mistakes I cannot sea.

    I ran this poem thru it
    I'm sure your pleased to no
    Its letter perfect in it's weigh
    My checker told me sew.
