I've had the Canon EOS Rebel XSi Digital SLR Camera Outfit w/ EF-S 18-55mm / 55-250mm for a little over three weeks now. The first week or so, I didn't bother taking it out of the box. I had to convince myself it was ok and that I didn't make a big mistake. The second week I took it out of the box started familiarizing myself with the buttons and settings and taking lots of shots of the back of my son's head, he thinks he has to be dressed and in the mood to have his picture taken. This past week my DD and I went to visit family in NC and I got lots of practice. Mostly shots of her but a few on my nieces and nephews as well. It's my first SLR and I"M LOVING IT! Even with my limited skills I think I got some pretty good shots and I rarely used the Auto setting at all. But I 'm hating that I really didn't learn how to properly use a P&S, so needless to say I have miles to go. I'm signing up for a photography 101 class and I think the class also teaches a little editing in PSE.
