Know Your Camera
New camera, lots of dials, no idea where to start?
Know Your Camera is a warm, practical guide from working photographer Lisa Salas that walks you through your camera one control at a time. You’ll learn what every dial and button does, which shooting mode to use and when, how aperture, shutter speed and ISO work together, how focus works, and which settings to change on day one.
What’s inside:

- Every shooting mode explained in plain English: Auto, P, A/Av, S/Tv and M
- The exposure triangle and starting settings for common situations
- Autofocus, back-button focus, RAW vs JPEG, white balance and metering
- A first-day setup checklist, menu settings to change today, a ten-minute practice exercise and a glossary
