Hey Guys,
I got this camera given to me for free. (we used them for an afternoon at work and the boss gave me one for a job well done.)
It's Nikon D40 with lens, bag, 2 8 gb cards, strap etc... the whole ball of wax.

Not sure what it's worth or it's capabilities, but just by messing with it last night, it looks like it can do some pretty cool stuff.
I know it's not the best camera out there, but the reviews are positive and it looks like it's more than jut a "point and shoot."
So here's the deal, now I wouldn't mind trying my eye at taking real pictures. I'm probably the only Art director in the world that doesn't dabble in photography.
Anyone know of a good book or blog I can check out to get me going?
Anyone have any useful tips etc???
Thanks guys!
