In order to consolidate this learning curve I'm embarking on, am I correct in assuming that if I use Adobe Raw and CS3 (ie. I set the 520 to save in RAW format) that as far as the camera is concerned I need only concentrate on getting exposure and focussing right? In other words, can I for the time being ignore all the settings to do with noise, shadow/highlights, etc?
Just fire away and see what you get. If you're not happy with the results, look more into these settings. Eventually, you will probably want to play around with these settings as you get used to the camera. A web site I would recommend is that of Andrzej Wrotniak. This guy is fantastic in his analysis and advice about E-system equipment. If you follow his set-up advice for the E510, it should work the same for your E520. Also, I recommend printing your manual in full and ploughing through it. Pain in the backside, I know, but it definitely pays dividends. But all this when you're ready. For the moment, just shoot away and let the questions and answers occur naturally. Most importantly, enjoy your lovely new camera .
