I have a Kodak DCS 520 that uses Canon lenses. I notice you didn't have a Kodak DSLR forum so I figured that Canon was as close as I can get! It is my first DSLR and I am maybe what you could call an intermediate amateur. I am in over my head as to what all the controls do, and I think I will have to spend about a week looking over the instruction manual to see if I can find out anything about what everything does. Until this camera, I had a 2.0 megapixel camera that had no mnaula controls whatsoever, so this is a huge step up for me.
