Nowadays, camera don't use film. They use DIGITAL. WHich is eithe a Compact Flash (not small flash LOL), or SD, not sure what that means, but it's in a book somewhere.
When you buy a camera, remember you want to use it to take pictures. More on that later.
Cameras have BODIES and LENSES. You wil need both. Use them together to take a picture.
Put the LENS onto the BODY, this is step one. Although your camera may come with the lens already on the body. More on this later.
You will also need a flash.
Then you need to learn about f stops and exposure, there ar ebook you can get with that in. Seach google for it.
more on that later.

Some shooters have a HOT BUTTON, this is a button that is a button. Some cameras have HOT BUTTONS too, more on that later.
Te shooter needs to lean his HOT BUTTON - might it be a tree, or something else?
Wen you know the HOT BUTTON you can use it to take pictures or.
More on that later
When you have worked out the Hot Button for your camera, you can use it to take pictues.
TAKING PICTUES
For this you need to put your eye (either on) on the bit you look through. After focussing (more on that later) you ned to press the Hot Button.
There are many books and inter web artices about this. I suggest you go read them. More on this later.
Now onto the basics.
There are three things you need to know about
Aperture - This is how fast the film speed is
f-stops - These things dicate how many pictures you can fit onto one memory card
Exposure - This is about how big the hole is opened in the camera which dictates how much light is let in
When you have mastered these three things you will be well on your way to being a top notch photographer.
Tomorrow I'll be posting about how to use auto focus to make people focus on one section of your picture and also explaining the rule of fifths.
Camera settings are imoortant to understand. I'll talk you tough them all
M: movie mode. Use this mode to shoot moving picture
Av: amateur view. This give an amateur look
Tv: no, not trannies LOL it means timer vlog. It's for self shot timed pics
P: professional mode. T his is when you understand an f stop means our film is faster. Although its not real film LOL
