I can't see which model that is though apart from a sony Alpha

That's about the only thing you need to know that's different from the auto modes.
Other than keeping a constant mind that you now need to individually change ISO, shutter, and aperture to get the right exposure as the camera won't do any of that automatically for you
RTFM

Yeah I was in shutter priority mode which only allows you to change the shutter speed, thus massively over exposing (or whatever) it. Even on iso 100 it was too bright. On completely manual you can adjust the aperture to get it right, I think. It's not as bright now so I'll test tomorrow.

Does the camera have exposure compensation in those priority modes? If it does, you could use that. Otherwise, just use manual mode for stuff like that.

BUT you can have it on a PC AND a Mac concurrently (I checked) ,which would be cool for me,.... work and play
I might just do it very soon.... they do a free trial version
If suggest doing the trial to see how you like it. I had been using Lightroom 4 since it was released (and Lightroom in general since the first version). Unfortunately, they didn't update it to support the raw format for my Olympus EM5ii. I debated back and forth on buying LR6 or the cloud version.
I ended up with the cloud version since I had been having issues with my CS3 version of Photoshop and needed to do some work in that, too. The cloud version is nice and I have a feeling they will continue to push that version with better and more frequent updates.

Yes, but not enough to compensate

I have recently updated from the Nikon D5100 to the D7200. I was a big fan of the D5100 but the the D7200 is a step up in terms of image quality. I use the Nikon 18-140mm 95% of the time-really pleased with this lens. If I want a bit more zoom, I have the Nikon 55-300.
