      I highly recommend a read through of Barbara London's Photography book [1]. Apparently this book is still commonly used for photography classes even these days.

      I have the 3rd edition which is pretty old, but all of the information is still applicable - film and digital cameras share the same basic principles.

      Barbara London and John Updike's "Photography" is literally the textbook most beginning photographers get in school. i'd suggest looking at used book sites to see if you can get a copy second-hand, since it is priced like a college textbook, too.
