Nine Dos and Don’ts for the New Camera Buyer

I read this post on a blog that I have subscribed to, Black Star Rising, and it's exactly what I have been telling all my friends who just bought a new camera, except they put it in a really organized list. Here is basically what it says, go to their post to see detailed explanation!

1. Read the manual
2. Read all menu screens on camera
3. Bring your manual with you when shooting
4. Take lots of photos
5. But don't shoot carelessly, quality not quantity
6. It's ok to use "Program" or "Auto" mode
7. Don't be afraid to experiment
8. Print your photos so you can see details
9. Don't get restrained in rules, get creative!
