any camera geniuses here please? [View all]

I bought a sony a58 (which i bitterly regret). I want a dslr which could, among other things, be fast to catch unexpected moments. This camera sadly has to calculate and whir and click until it decides to mission accomplished. Am I doing something wrong? I should have purchased either a nikon or a canon dslr which are simple to use and produce excellent results. Any info will be highly appreciated. Thanks folks
