How to use Nikon D3200?

For example, Nikon D3200 sets are cost-effective and suitable for novices. The most important thing now is how to use this camera well. According to your description, you are really a beginner. Here, I want to give you some suggestions:

1, read the camera manual carefully and repeatedly (like my photography experience of more than 20 years, I have to consult the manual at any time), and remember that the manual is the most authoritative photography tutorial.

2. If you like photography, you should read books on the basics of photography and understand the principle of photography, so that you can shoot with ease.

3. Look at other people's excellent works. The internet is very convenient now. Search online. There are many photographers' works, such as No Shadow, Hummingbird and Pacific Photography Tribe, which are all very good. You can learn from them and imitate them to gradually improve your photography.

4. As you said, these questions are all in the basic book of photography. Generally, if you want to shoot a big scene and a big field of vision, you need to shoot with the wide-angle end of the lens (18mm), and if you want to shoot close-ups of people, you need to shoot with the telephoto end (55mm). The main function of the hood is to prevent direct light from directly shining into the lens and affecting the imaging effect. So, if there is no direct light, you can take off the hood. Because the wide-angle end has a wide field of vision, sometimes the hood will affect the field of vision, and the phenomenon of four corners shadow will appear.

That's all I can think of.

I hope my answer is helpful to you.
