I posted this about a week ago, but I have reason to believe that it didn't
make it out to the net.  My apologies if you have seen this before.

I am sure that those of you who read net.rec.photo have heard  this  question
many times, but here it goes anyway:

I am interested in purchasing a 35mm camera.  Unfortunately, I know little if
anything about photography.  I wish to educate myself about 35mm  cameras  in
general, so that I will be able to  make an intelligent choice about    which
camera will suit my needs, and I also want to be able to understand  all  the
related terms concerning 35mm cameras and lenses.   Can  anyone  recommend  a
single book I could purchase that would explain to  me  the  basics  of  35mm
cameras and lenses (and accessories)?  I have a technical backround, but as I
said before, I know next to nothing about photography.  Can anyone help me???

                           Thanks,
                           Dennis
