I'm more interested in that than composition and such since, while good to know, in the end it's subjective anyway. I'd save the "how to take good photos" class for after the "how to use the camera" class.
Yeah, that is wise advice! Realizing my total inexperience with anything other than a point-and-shoot, this will be optimal use of my brainage.

I will check out costco for cameras, too, thanks NA.

Right now we're in fantasy, but I might have a little money to play with and I can either take a fast trip someplace, or buy a new toy.
