Re: Best learning methods?


Find a locally owned camera shop and talk to the people there. Usually, everyone who works in the local shops is an enthusiast, and would be happy to talk to you about local resources, clubs, and inexpensive community college courses or workshops. They will also stock photography books, and be able to recommend a good beginners book for your needs.

Focus on composition and exposure, and learn about controlling your focal plane / depth of focus. As John mentions, the hardware is secondary.
