#1. The beginning of a newbie's adventure.

Welcome! I wanted to start a blog about a newbie's journey with a Digital SLR (Single Lens Reflex) camera. Hopefully other newbies can relate and help each other out!

This will be a huge learning opportunity for me, as I've never owned a DSLR before. I have done some film work before, so I have a basic knowledge of depth-of-field, aperture, and exposure, but it's still not enough.

I created this blog so that I will actually use and explore everything my DSLR can offer, instead of treating it like a shiny new toy for a month and then leaving it in a corner to rot and make friends my guitar, softball glove, and my tape deck.

Each week-month, I will try out a new feature on my camera and get familiarized with it. I will be using the "Digital SLR Photography Toolkit for Dummies" iPhone app as a guide. Once I purchase my DSLR (which is a whole nother adventure in itself), I will buy a guide book to aide in my journey.

Onward and DSLRward! (deselarward?)
