Digital Photography Adventures

Just upgraded my photography equipment to a DSLR with the purchase of a Sony a350. Bit of a step into the unknown as I know nothing about 'proper' photography, fortunately one of my birthday presents was an Amazon voucher so I can see a few Idiots Guide to DSLRs coming my way fairly soon. Luckily the quick start guide only has four steps - set the dial to auto, view through the screen, half press the shutter button to focus, fully depress to shoot. I think I can cope with that!
