...picking up photography as a hobby...? My dad said he would buy me a camera for Christmas, but at this stage, I am utterly clueless and have no idea of what to get.

So, first, what camera would you recommend?
Then, what do I do next (or before)? Do you know of any "Supreme Beginner" guides to Photography?
I know one would suggest to "just go snap photos," but I'd like to learn a bit about the camera I get and other basic things, first.

I think this will be a great thing for me to work on and enjoy, because hopefully, I'll be in DC for college, so I can't pass up all the great photo opportunities!

Thanks for answering!
Well, I know I would have to spend $350 minimum for a DSLR, so I suppose I'd need to talk to my dad about both options.

Could you recommend a camera of each type, perhaps?
