Preparing Camera To Shoot/ Camera Set Up

These are instructions for a DLSR Camera Set up:

- First of all you have to check the battery level before you go out on a shoot so you are prepared to shoot for a long period of time instead of getting to a shoot and the camera running out of battery, you will be able to tell this by which level of the battery the indicator is on. If the battery is running out you then bring a spare or just change it completely.
- Next, you then have to insert the recording media. This means that you have to make sure you have a memory card with enough space on for a shoot, then insert it where the camera has the slot, then close the cover and when the camera is turned on the number of shots will be displayed on the LCD monitor of how many pictures can fit on the memory card like (p. 32).
- Then you need to select recording size which is shown in the post below about all the camera functions on a DSLR camera.  
- You then need to set the diopter, this means that you have to make sure that the points in the viewfinder look as sharp as possible.
- Now you need to select auto or manual focus depending on what you are shooting.
- Then you need to select the metering mode depending on how bright the subject or the area you are shooting. 
- Last but not least you have to set the white balance, you have to do this so that the white objects look white in the picture so that the photos aren't ruined.
- Finally you then select the shoot mode depending on the area or the type of shoot and you are ready to go!
