Use a Nikon P5100
The Nikon Coolpix P5100 is a 12.1-megapixel digital camera designed for consumer photographers who want to take high-resolution pictures. The camera has a 3.5x optical zoom with image stabilization and is packed with a great deal of features to make taking great looking pictures simple to do in a variety of different conditions. If you've just purchased a Nikon P5100, learning to use the camera is easy to do.
Instructions
1. Turn the wheel at the top of the camera to the picture of the green camera to take pictures. The green camera will default to putting your camera into an automatic mode where it will compensate for lighting conditions and other changes on its own.
2. Hold the shutter button down halfway to auto focus on an object. Once your subject is in focus, press the shutter button down the remainder of the way to take a picture.
Press the button that looks like a flower on the right side of the camera to put the camera in macro mode. Macro mode will keep objects in focus that are close to the camera lens and is typically used for pictures of items like stamps, coins, or flowers.
3. Press the button that looks like a lightening bolt on the back of the camera to turn the flash on or off. The P5100 will typically default to having the flash on unless you turn it off.
4. Press the button that looks like a broken circle on the right side of the camera to initiate the camera's self-timer. A self-timer will allow you to set up the camera to take a picture and then get in the picture yourself before it is taken.
5. Press the button that looks like a square on the left side of the back of the camera to turn off the camera's LCD screen. LCD screens typically take up battery power. By using the viewfinder to frame shots rather than the LCD screen, you can dramatically lengthen your battery life.
6. Press "Menu" and then scroll to "ISO," using the controls on the right side of the camera to change the ISO setting of your camera. Typically, you will want to use a low ISO for bright situations and a high ISO for dark ones. The camera will default to selecting an ISO itself which may make it unnecessary for you to adjust the setting manually.
