Do you like? Do not worry it is not alone. Manuals reflect the technical power of modern cameras, but they are intimidating to the novice who just wants to take a decent picture.

Digital cameras are like most computer programs, you may find that you can buy a ten per cent of the available functions. So do not stay in knots trying to understand everything. They learn what they need to know and to learn, and you’ll be on track to become a better photographer.

Tip 3. Learn the art and technique. All problems of photography can not be resolved by the camera.
