What do you think is the best way to learn SLR shooting. I learned to fly rc and do ap just by reading forums. But I want to produce calender quality photos. Prdon th spelling I just got off work and am heading to bed ( I work 3rd)

I think the best way to learn photography is by practicing! Read up and go try some new things. As you experiment you will pick up more knowledge. I think the digital format has allowed someone to learn at a cheaper cost than traditional film. Yes the cameras are more but no film to buy and no processing to pay. I think leanring basic darkroom techniques helps. And I think the zone system helps, not just for B&W. But if you don't practice, and not willing to experiment some. Not going to go that far.

I LOVE my Nikon D50, you pretty much can't be disappointed by it.

I am leaning twards the pentax with the image stabilazation. I think that is important to me because I would be taking pictures at fire scenes and stuff like that.
