    That's a really nice chunk of metal you have there. Buy some OM series lenses for it on ebay and start shooting!

    Congrats on the new camera. Get you a good walk around zoom similar to this one and get you a good book on expsure and you are off. Try an find a book called "Teach yourself Photography" and nice and easy to understand book that will help you a lot.
