Learning Digital Photography

I want to start learning more about digital photography....what is the first step in creating beautiful?

artistic pictures? Technical speaking...I am a graphic artist but I don't know much about technical stuff like what camera to get ...not to complicated for a beginer, what computer programs to use to work on pictures, etc.Any suggestions? Ideas I have a lot, just the technical stuff it's holding me back...and I love love to create and improvise ...I see beauty all around and it's frustrating that I don't have any confidence in me taking a good picture because I don't really have to much free time to start reading a books about photo...I need a quik start...help???

First, take classes in photography. Learn about light and composition and f-stops and shutter speeds and ISO. By doing this, you will come closer to "getting it right in the camera" instead of depending on some editing program to try to "fix" poor images.

Visit http://www.shutterbug.com and Search for 'get it right'. The actual article is titled "Get It Right... In The Camera; ... And Save On "Post"-Processing Time'' by Steve Bedell.

The almost Pavlovian response when choosing a camera is mentioned is NIKON! CANON! as though there were no others. With the A300 and A350 Sony is raising the bar in the DSLR entry-level world. Pentax is not far behind with their K200D and K20D DSLRs.
