New camera

I bought a new camera yesterday. Only my second digital camera and nothing is wrong with the first except that I cannot tolerate the shutter delays before and also after taking a picture. I went to look at it yesterday but then ordered it online last night (amazingly just hours before the sale price disappeared!) to get more amex points so I don't have it yet.
I'm excited about getting to know it, hope I can make myself actually read the book.
