I've decided to get into photography, and I just impulse bought my first camera, a Pentax Q10:
Yes that's Evangelion themed. No I don't want to talk about how much I paid.
I'm really excited for it to arrive. What kind of kit should I get to take care of it? I'm assuming some kind of carry case, but I've no idea if I need something specialised or generic. Have you got any other tips for taking care of it?
Many thanks!
EDIT: Thanks so much for everyone's advice! It sounds like I shouldn't get anything too prematurely, but there's also a lot stuff I should consider early on once I've got a feel for the camera.
First of all congratulations!
I would say to just enjoy your new camera as it is - it will become clear to you over time if there are any dedicated accessories you need. Build up a relationship with it so that you know it inside out, without too many other distracting bits of kit to juggle. You can even just use a towel or jiffy bag until you know what kind of case suits you and the camera, and clean the lens & viewfinder with a cotton T-shirt.
Enjoy!
