Most of the best advice has already been offered, so ill mention one more point which helped me immensely in the beginning...... learn to walk before you try to run! There is alot to learn, at the time I got my first DSLR I was only thinking "get away from auto". I therefore started to try shooting only in M mode without having a clue what I was doing. After alot of frustration I went back to basics, working my way through the modes, P then A then S and then finally M, learning the application of each mode.I wish you alot of fun with your newly discovered hobby. The forum members here can offer you a wealth of support so dont hesitate to ask questions.</blockquote>
