Is it an EF mount camera?
If so I suggest you get a canon dSLR as well so you can use the lens on it as well.
A canon eos Xt maybe? they got replaced by the newer models but I am sure you can still find them around. But I would say get a Xti XSi (like me) or the new XS(just came out with the digital one) as they are newer and have dust repelant sensors.

Code:

XT: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Digital-Rebel-XT-Camera/dp/B0007QKMSC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1216551594&sr=8-2
XT with kit: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Digital-Rebel-XT-f3-5-5-6/dp/B0007QKN22/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1216551594&sr=8-1

Also what are the maximum aperture settings you can get on that lens? I am guessing around f/3.5-5.6?

Also remember the sunny f/16 rule?
on a sunny day set aperture to 16 then make shutterspeed = ISO so if ISO is 400 set shutterspeed to 1/400s

Basic exposure stuff.

Also silicon on the dSLRs don't react the same as film reacts to light so exposure might be off when using the same settings.

Also ISO 400 is pretty good for indoor - outdoor shots but for low light you might need something like ISO 1600

Also I suggest you read up on the pdf file I am attaching.

And remember, FULL AUTO FOR THE NUBZ!
Use Manual, Tv (shutter priority), and Av(aperture priority) modes ONLY!
