Hello all keen photographers!
I wondered if you'll could answer a few Q's for me..
1) Is this the correct order for the way a camera is built?
a) lens
b) aperture
c) shutter
d) image sensor
2) Nikkor 28mm f/2.8 AF D
what does the 'D' stand for?
3) 18-55mm lens
Is 18mm the distance between the lens and the shutter, or the distance between the lens and the aperture?
Likewise is 55mm the distance between the lens and the shutter, or the distance between the lens and the aperture?
4) If you'll have time and don't mind, could you have a look at some of my flics on 'Flickr'
I'd really appreciate some feedback on my shots. Good feedback, and especially critical feedback. (please leave a comment on each image post)

Lastly, thankyou all so very much for checking out my Q, and thanks in advance for your answers, I really appreciate it!

Answer
What do the letters mean?
G - A new subset of the D-type lenses, without an aperture ring. The aperture is set by a command dial on the camera body.
D - Lens provides distance to subject information to camera; useful for automatic flash setting
ED - Extra low dispersion glass; give superior sharpness and color rendition
IF - Internal focus - the lens does not rotate or extend as it focuses
AF-S - Auto-focus, silent wave focus engine contained inside the lens itself
DX - Lens formatted for digital sensors that should not be used on full frame cameras
VR - Vibration Reduction - a gyroscopic system to detect and correct camera shake to yield sharp images at slower shutter speeds
18mm and 55mm refer to the "focal length" of the lens. If you don't understand that, I suggest that you check out Wiki on the topic, as they will have illustrations to make it clear to you. Scroll down: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length
I don't understand what you mean in the first question about the order in which a camera is made.
You would do a lot better if this was posted as four separate questions. Some people love giving photo critiques and others enjoy answering technical questions. Asking so many questions in one will chase some potential answerers away.

Will Sony DSLR cameras work with A mount manual focus lenses?
annoyed
I inherited an old Minolta SLR camera with a couple of decent lenses a vivitar 200mm "auto telephoto lens" and a vivitar 70-150mm "close focusing auto zoom" lens. now while both of these lenses say auto in their names, they have no automatic features that i can tell being all manual controls. I had found out that new Sony DSLR's use the same mount as Minolta lenses but i all i read seems to talk about the Minolta AF lenses. So what i would like to know is if what if any Sony cameras would work with old Minolta MF lenses. i don't mind feature loss so long as it can still meter as i would rather use manual controls as it is.
Answer
Unfortunately, you have the wrong lens mounts. The Sony DSLR's use the A mount, used by the Minolta and Minolta/Konica DSLR's for autofocus lenses.
The Minolta lenses you are looking at are most likely for the older Minolta SR mount, a classic 35mm camera series that I used to own and love. The two different lense systems are not compatible. Ther are no current DSLR's that use this older Minolta mount.
