Free Instructions For A Nikon One Touch With Zoom Lens

The Nikon One Touch with Zoom Lens is a relatively inexpensive and user-friendly camera that is perfect for the photographer who just wants to have a fun, simple time taking photos. Nikon made the camera easy to use, and with a quick setup and a couple quick tips, you will be ready to use the camera, too.


Preparation








The first thing that needs to be done is to install the battery. The battery compartment is located on the back of the camera, on the left side. Use a coin to open the compartment (there is a lid with a small lip to catch the coin on), and insert your battery carefully in the correct position, with the positive side facing toward the camera top. Close the lid, making sure it latches properly. While the battery might be installed, it needs to be checked for life; turn the camera on by pressing the on/off button on the top of the camera. This will turn the camera on, causing the lens to zoom out, and the LCD screen to turn on. On the LCD screen located on the top of the camera, to the immediate right of the on/off button, a small digital representation of a battery will be shown, indicating how much battery life it has. If the image is blinking, then the battery is near dead and needs to be replaced.


Following the battery, the film must be inserted and loaded before pictures can be taken. Use only DX-coded 35mm film--take note of the film speed you buy, as this will affect how your pictures will look when they are developed. To load the film, slide the camera back lock release lever toward the center of the camera. This will pop open the back of the camera. Place your film into the recessed section of the now exposed camera innards, making sure that the tab of film that is protruding from the film canister is pointing to the left. Once the film canister is in place, slide the film tab to the left, and fit its edge onto the spool at the left of the camera. Make the film flush with the camera body, eliminating any slack it may have, and close the camera back. If loaded properly, a "1" should show up on the LCD display, telling you that this is your first picture to shoot.


Taking Pictures








Now to the fun part! Hold the camera and look through the viewfinder (the small window on the back of the camera). This will show what you are framing up and going to take a picture of. Press the shutter release button, located immediately to the right of the LCD screen on the top of the camera, but only half way. This will autofocus the image for you. Firmly press the button the rest of the way to take your first picture. Immediately behind the shutter release button are the two zoom buttons, which look like a silhouette of a tree (zoom in) and a silhouette of three trees (zoom out). Press the zoom in button to obtain a picture with the look of a 90mm telephoto lens, and zoom out to obtain a look of a 38mm wide-angle lens. Experiment with both, and size up the subject how you would like them in the picture.


Once you have finished taking all the pictures on a roll of film, the film will rewind automatically. Open the camera back and remove the film container, which houses your undeveloped negatives.
