Where can I learn about digital photography?

I've just bought the new Pentax K100D digital SLR. Where (or how) can I learn more about digital photography, because apart from playing around with a little compact Pentax digital camera for the past few weeks.

you couldn't have started in a better place.

Have a look around the forums here and you will find a lot of information and the ins and outs of starting out.

Try to get involved in a local camera club if one is available.

Also, check out the Photographic Expeditions forum and the Photo Challenge forum to challenge yourself

And if you get a chance, check out the Photobudies Thread for people in your area

Happy snappin'
