Nikon DSLRs have great image quality and the latest features.
Are you looking to take your photography to the next level? Do you feel you've outgrown your point-and-shoot digital camera? If so, a digital single-lens reflex camera, or DSLR, may be for you. DSLRs are the "big cameras" that professional photographers use, but don't be intimidated. Nikon has several entry-level DSLR models that are easy to set up and use. In fact, the biggest adjustment may be learning to look through an eyepiece again.
Instructions
1. Set up your Nikon DSLR by attaching the strap, connecting the lens and charging the battery. The instructions that come with your camera will walk you through step by step with both text and illustrations.
2. Turn on the Nikon DSLR, and turn the Mode Dial, located on the top right of your camera, until the Auto setting is aligned with the mark. The Auto setting is designated by a camera symbol.
3. Raise the Nikon DSLR to your eye, supporting it with your right hand on the right side of the camera and your left hand underneath the lens.
4. Look through the eyepiece and locate the subject. Twist the textured dial around the lens to zoom in or out until the shot is properly framed.
5. Press the shutter button--it is the round, silver button on the right front of the camera. Holding it halfway down will activate the autofocus feature; you may then press the button down further until the camera takes the shot.
6. Look at your shot on the screen. If you want to delete the photograph, press the Delete button. It's the small round button to the right of the screen with the trash can icon.
