I think it's time for a guide to start right from the beginning. So let's start with and unpack the camera. "This guide refers to you who just bought a camera"
Unpacking the camera
-The first thing you should do when you have packed your camera out of the box is sure everything is there. There is often a material list in the box or in the user manual. Then I will charge the battery and while it is charging you could check out the camera by, for example, watching a youtube video about your camera.
- Should I read the manual? If it's your first camera, I'll personally read it. Now I have had several cameras and over time I no longer feel it is necessary, but as the first buyer / owner of a camera I would recommend it. It will help you understand and understand your camera faster and operate it properly.
-A camera kit often contains the following.
1. Camera house.
2. Protection hood for the house.
3. Lens.
4. 2x protection cap for your lens.
5. Battery.
6. Charger + power cable.
7. Transfer USB cable.
8. Camera strap.
- What to buy next.
1. Memory card.
2. Camera case.
3. Anti dust cloth only for your camera.
4. Tripod / Stand
5. Graduation filter / ND filter.
6. 1x Extra battery.
First time
-This battery is fully charged and it is now time to set your camera for the first time. Then put the battery in your camera, it is on most camera located at the bottom of the camera.
-When you turn on the camera, mount your lens. Start with and loosen the rear protection cap on the lens. Put it on the table with the lens off, then turn the cap off the camera but you point it down. "Why is that?" Well that's for and avoid as little dust in the camera as possible, with a little practice you can do it anywhere without putting your lens or camera away from you.
At the camera house there is an indicator marked with color, perhaps white or red. And on your lens there is a similarity when these two meet you can turn it in.
-Mounting of memory cards, The card is stored on most cameras behind a small door on the right side. For security reasons, the card can only be installed / installed in one way.

Setting the camera
- Turn on the camera and program it automatically also called (P) on the program selector wheel mounted on the top of your camera.
-Remove the cover mounted on the lens and make sure your camera is on AF, Automatic Focus. The AF / MF button is mostly mounted on the left side of the camera either on the camera housing or lens.
- Now look into the camera's view finder and focus on an object that is well lit and not in motion, then press the trigger button halfway down and the camera will now auto focus on the selected object.
-At the view finder there is a small swivel button, turn it while still looking through it until it becomes blurred. Now turn back again until the object is completely sharpened. Your camera's focus is now properly set up.

Your camera is now set up and ready to take its first picture.
