Well I finally got it...

Well I finally bought my first DSLR, an EOS Digital Rebel. Bought it used, with about 1000 pictures taken on it from the previous owner. Starting to learn as much as possible, reading tutorials, basics, etc.

I'm really wanting to go out there and take picture upon picture, but I'm worried that I'm going to take so many pictures in this first stage, that when I do become better at photography my camera isn't going to be working properly! Anyone else feel like this when they first started?

Anyways, just thought I'd let that out. I'm having a blast, heh.

The only thing that you are likely to wear out eventually is the shutter but it can be replaced and that's a long way off in the future so stop worrying and get out there and shoot some pictures!!!

You've chosen a great camera and you'll get some superb advice from this forum. Have fun! :D
