I can remember when I treated myself to my first SLR camera, my sister bought herself one, and found a book, which showed the basics of things like depth of field. I Played around without film in it, looking at how the different appature setting altered what was in focus through the view finder. I also spend a small fortune on taking pictures of things like flowers where the depth of field was very narrow.
The great thing about digital is that you can see the results straight away. Nor does it cost you anything to view them.
I would say, go out an play - you don't need to take picture of anything exciting. Just play with the settings. Also with the manual focus.
I can remember taking the kids to the safari park, and put the appature setting in manual, and wondered why the camera kept focusing on the bars of the tiger enclosure, when I realised I was on autofocus.
Although I do still use fully Auto, more and more I am setting the appature myself, and more often than not use manual focus.
My next thing is to use the shutter setting on manual, and then combine it to fully manual.
Books are wonderful way of learning, but nothing beats actually getting out and using your camera,
