Love to click photograph? But NOT familiar with DSLR camera? You might feel how using DSLR comes easily to others and all you could do is praise their photography. Don't worry! We have come
up with some notable advises to use the DSLR camera in right way.Time to start
photography like professional do.
Here are some notable
advise when you use DSLR camera..
1.Read the Manual
May be it sounds boring,but reading the manual will really help your confidence and flexibility when using your new camera. Knowing what each feature or button does can get you out of a jam when you need it. And the chances are your new beast does a lot more than you thought it could.
2. Explore your camera
One of the
greatest strengths of DSLRs is the level of manual control they offer, which
helps you craft each image exactly the way you want it.The only real way to
take advantage of this control is to understand the basics of how shutter
speed, aperture, ISO etc work and to get the right combination to get your picture perfect image.
3. Move on from auto-everything modes.
Once
you understand the basics of shutter speed, aperture and ISO, you’re free
to swim in the deep end of your camera’s capabilities – the creative modes.
Leaving the camera in auto-everything (often shown with a green box on the mode
selector) will give you passable to good shots, but you’ll never really know in
advance what you’ll get because the camera decides on depth of field and shutter
speed issues (and ISO on some cameras).
4.Switch
off the on-camera flash
Cameras these
days are getting astonishingly good at shooting in low-light situations, and
you’ll get much more satisfying results if you increase the ISO and shoot
without the flash.Besides, flash takes away the natural beauty of the subject.
5.Shoot
all kinds of different things
When most amateurs start out with our first DSLR, they don’t know which genre they like over others.Landscapes, sports, events, wildlife, still life, street photography etc all
offer their own challenges and rewards. So try all of them (and anything else
you can think of) and see what excites you. Even if you discover that you’re
not that interested in that particular area, you’ll probably learn something
along the way that will enhance your photography skills.
6. Adding randomness to your photos
Learn how to set your images apart from everyone else’s by injecting creativity, variety and a little randomness into your shots. There should be a thought behind each image – but the more you experiment, the faster you’ll learn.
7.Try burst/continuous shooting
One of the
hardest aspects of photography is timing. It's all too easy to shoot too soon,
or too late, completely
missing the intended moment in the process. However, you can mitigate problems like these by activating your camera's burst/continuous shooting mode.

Pressing the
shutter button will take not just one image, but as many as five or six per
second, almost guaranteeing you'll get a piece of the action.Just remember,
you'll want to set your shutter-speed as high as lighting
conditions allow. If you shoot too slow, your image may still come out blurry,
or you could miss the moment all together.
8.Try experimenting other lenses.
If your
camera came with a kit lens (one bundled with the camera body), it’s likely a
medium zoom lens, that covers a pretty useful range. It’s useful in most
situations (especially outdoors), but likely isn’t as good in lower light
conditions (because its lowest aperture might be f/4 or above), and the image
quality might not be stellar.
Clicking with other lenses will help you expand your horizons. For example - Working with a 50mm prime lense (‘prime’ simply means a lens that shoots at a fixed focal length, rather than a zoom that shoots at a range of lengths, such as 24-mm) will help you know concepts like depth of field, fixed vision etc.

9. Share your
photos
Sharing your images online is another way to give your images available to all. Photo sharing websites like Flickr and Instagram are a great way to find an audience for your work, and also get exposed to a group of people with similar interests and skills. Real-life meetups often start online too, so you might find a like-minded group near you.
Conclusion
The
main thing is to enjoy your new camera and bring out the McCurry in you. hopefully these tips have given you
some pointers.
Happy clicking :)
