As the others have already said, Peterson's book is indeed great. It will help you understand the relationship between Av, Tv and ISO as well as get you started in understanding D.O.F. It will not however magically make your photos any better (a lesson i am learning all to well). For that you should search this board and others like it in addition to posing any questions you have to the good folks here. I just switched from an SD550 to an Xti and its much harder than i anticipated to get good shots. As a matter of fact I haven't gotten any yet. Hopefully if i keep hanging around here that will change.

Good luck with the new camera.
