As one reader has said about Full Stop guides:

“It’s the first guide I’ve read which has taken me through all the settings in an understandable way. I now feel that I have control over the camera.”

To get you started, Nikon D3300 Experience guides you through all the Playback, Shooting, Setup, Retouch, and Movie Menus of the D3300 to help you best set up the camera and its controls for your specific shooting needs. The guide covers basic dSLR camera functions and exposure concepts for those new to digital SLR photography, and explains more advanced camera controls and operation, such as taking full advantage of the 11-Point Autofocus System and its AF Modes and AF Area Modes for sharp focus of still and moving subjects. It explains how and when to use the various metering modes and exposure compensation for correct exposure of every image, how to take advantage of other features of the D3300 such as the in-camera Special Effects Shooting Modes, and introduces the HD video capabilities.
