He shoots he scores! Now that wasn't so hard now was it? Seriously, thanks haux. I'll give that a try.

Reading the manual can overload you with information that covers an extremely broad and usually vague decription (especially for non-experts and non enthusiasts) of your targetted photo shooting. The reason I posted this here is that I see a lot of great shots here and I can see a lot here know what they're doing. maybe THOSE guys can help. And since some here are way too "friendly" lemme go ahead and direct the question to those who wanna help out a NOOB. And FYI haux, I got this camera as a gift. And it is JUST a toy for me. I'm just wanting to learn how to play with it properly.

Yeah I guess you guys are right. One big question though, what are the two dials on the right side of the camera? I know they are for "F" and shutter speed or something but what are these for?

Let's say, bright sunny day all day...shooting steel coasters so average speed 60 mph...wanting to "freeze" the trains mid track or doing an inversion...I have a Nikor 18-200mm lens, no external flash. I want to take panoramic shots, coaster closeups and family-in-themepark pics.

So I got this new neat Nikon DSLR D90. What settings can y'all recommend for coaster photography (like getting a shot at a coaster in motion without the blurriness) and versatile all day camera settings for theme park photography. Please don't say AUTO
