Here is a tip with what to do and what not do do with this forum.
What to do:
Turn Off Caps! ;)

As far as the camera is concerned, that question is too vague.
Grab your self some coffee, and have a read at some of the great posts in this forum.
You will find lots of helpful information.
Once you have a specific question, come back and ask and the helpful and friendly people here will be more than hapy to answer.
:cool:

Also, don't forget to read the manual from cover to cover.

Yep, excellent idea, I still pick up stuff doing that, there have been quite a few questions asked on this forum, that are clearly answered in the manual (the files being named _MG_xxxx is one that comes to mind!).

What sort of shooting will you be doing, that might help narrow down things a little, but do read the forums, heaps of great stuff here :cool:

NEED SOME TIPS ON WHAT TO DO AND NOT TO DO WITH NEW CAMERADO:
Take off the lens cap
Take some pictures

DON'T:
Drop it!!!
Leave it sitting on a table where a child can grab it and toss it like a rock (my nephew did that to my first digital camera . . .good thing he did... it was a Nik*n)

;) ;) ;) ;)

Sorry . . . feeling kinda silly at 2:30am EST . . . I'm still new at photography, so i'm one of the last people you'd want to hear do's and don'ts from. I will say this . . .

Get their advice and Practice! Practice! Practice! I've learned so much from this forum and I see my pictures getting better and better.

Good luck with the new camera and welcome to the forum!
