If I am honest, you should not have really got a D-SLR, as you don't sell your images, you don't do stock photography and you don't work for anyone... plus Sony is a really bad make to go with for a D-SLR.
I agree with the others, why spend so much money on a camera, when you just snap?
Is this meant to be impressive?
