I must agree i am on the market for the same camera, and after watching your review im confident this is what camera im getting as my first. Thank you for the great review on it.
Tony, This video is one of the best.... I just took my D3300 and with in a day your video got to educate me on all the features.... Thanks for that... and also for all your suggestion slated on this video......
I've had this camera for 2 years now and I finally feel like I know how to use it after watching this. Thank you for your time and energy in your videos. You are a great teacher and I will be buying your books now.
Just purchased a Nikon D3300 today and with the help of this video im sure I will master it quicker than reading any instructions...... Excellent Video....
OMG this is a great tutorial. I just purchased a D3300 as my first DSLR. This is the best tutorial I've seen so far. I'll be watching it a few time and purchasing your book as well! Thanks for making it and making it free!
I am new to photografy and just got a Nikon D3200 with a 18-105 Lense to start somewhere. I took now something like 2-3 hours to follow every step in this video with my own camera in hands and it is amazing how much i've learned of basic stuff in this short time... So, first I wanted to thank Tony and his team for this great and interesting video and second I would like to suggest to all the begginers out there: Take the time and follow every single tip that you will see here (pause and rewatch it until you really understood it) and you will improve just right away :) And now... I need to order some of the suggested stuff ^^
I've watched several videos and read many how-to articles. Watching this added great value, I appreciate the time, insights, and guidance presented in this video. I'm glad to invest the time...
Tony and Chelsea thank you for keeping this content available! Your tutorials are always so well done. I have had my D3300 for 3-4 years but have watched this tutorial 3 times now because I let my camera sit for months before picking it up again and its one of the best if not THE best tutorial. In short you guys are awesome!
Excellent video, clear and concise, and it never spent the first 10 minutes showing me how to open a box....and unlike many other videos on RUclips, Tony doesn't SHOUT. I've had this video open on my navigation bar all week and am constantly referring to it.
I have the utmost respect for Tony, he seems like a very open minded and patient instructor. His videos are so informative and positive. I'm definitely convinced, and will be picking up my copy of "stunning visual photography" tomorrow morning! Thanks so much for your time and honesty, Tony!
I watched this video after ordering this camera and again just now once I had it in my hands. It's my first DSLR and your videos have given me some confidence that I can actually use it and made me excited for my upcoming trip to Costa Rica.
Thank you so much for your videos. I've requested your book as an upcoming gift. I watched several of your videos on taking portraits the day before my son's high school prom. Thanks to you, I got AMAZING photos using a Canon PowerShot. Everyone's impressed. As a result, I got more interested and I just got the D3300 as a first digital slr. You have a gift at explaining concepts with crystal clarity.
This was an outstanding tutorial on the d3300, which I just bought today. I realize I am going to have to go through it again, holding my camera, and doing exactly what Tony Northrup is explaining. The first time through, just watching the video, was a great overview. Thanks to this video, I just saved myself hours of frustration, and may even get a decent picture or two.
Tony the Life Savior, after buying the camera I was feeling that I wasted my money - but with this tutorial, I am about to hit the Top... Great Tutorial...
Great video, even at 8 years old. I just bought a used D3300 for hiking use and had already saved this video to watch when the camera arrived. I have used many more advanced Nikon DSLR so I'm familiar with reading the manual and working through the menu settings but I thought it would get me a quick kick start into the camera by watching your video.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been chronically ill for quite a long time and been unable to have a creative outlet, I recently decided to get into photography... being disabled, I didn't have a ton of money to buy an expensive camera to start, I bought the D3300 and have been looking for a good tutorial for a while now, this was way beyond my expectations. I wish I had found your channel before buying a lens, tripod and filters.. I've learned so much in just a few of your videos. Thank you so much for helping me improve my photography skills and understand my camera so much more. Subscribed for future purchasing and tips! Thanks again.
Thanks for making this video! I'm going to Iceland in a few days and the D3300 is the first "real" camera I've owned, so all of these manual camera terms and concepts are new to me.
Very informative. I just purchased my D3300, I learned instantly from this video alone. Looking forward to watch more of his video tutorials. Bought the recommended accessories as well. Thank you!
Brilliant informative tutorial Tony. Easy to follow and gave me a real insight into my new D3300. I now feel confident to take it off auto. Manual here I come!!
Well +Tony Northrup I pretty much spent the day in class learning from your wonderful teachings today! I thank you SO much! As it has been said in the past...when the student is ready - the teacher will appear!
Thank you for this video! Purchased my D3300 a month or so ago and have been playing around with the settings after watching another of your beginner tutorials. This has helped me understand (and know where to find the information for) the camera in more detail and makes more sense than the manual. Hopefully I will remember all this information when I am out and about with the camera!
Thank you so much for this video! I bought the Nikon D3200 for over a year ago and while I knew a lot about it and there were a few extra tips that I am very grateful for in this video, I also have your book and the combination of the video and the book I think will really step up my photography. I was glad to see you recommend the AF-S 50mm f1.8 lens as it is the first lens I bought. Thank you once again for the video, I really enjoy the content you and your wife produce!
I've just purchased the D3200 and 2 kit lenses for a fantastic price. After much research see a huge difference between it and the D3300, so I went for it. I have watched dozens of videos trying to figure out how to change shutter and aperture in manual mode. One would think this would be pretty standard fare. But it wasn't. And the owner's manual wasn't a great deal of help either.Your video explained everything I need to know to get going. Having been a student of photography back in the 70's and 80's I understand a lot about shutter speed, aperture and ISO (a.k.a. ASA) and how they all relate to the final image. I went into this not wanting to get stuck depending on the auto mode, so I will shoot in manual - or one of the priority modes for most of the time. If I easy, I'll use a point and shoot or my cellphone camera. And shooting RAW is an absolute must for me. I purchased Adobe Lightroom 6 and am in the process of learning that as well. Developed my first NEF in LR6 only 2 hours after taking my first shot on the D3200. Results are extremely encouraging. By the way, will you be doing a book on LR6? Thank you again for a great instructional video, and consider me subscribed. I am looking forward to becoming passionate about photography again. Brilliant video. Cheers mate !
I love your videos. I love how easy you make everything to understand. I'm pretty simple and I like things explained that way. Although I get the feeling you are pretty complex, you explain things simply and I like that. I love my camera and I love to take pictures, I take pictures of everything. Thank you so much for your very awesome videos, I am sure your time is very valuable and I appreciate your knowledge and time.
I've watched this a few times and it's a great tutorial. Lots of information at a great pace so you can do all the different steps on your own camera. Thank you for making this tutorial.
I enjoyed your video. It's new to digital cameras. I used a Olympus OM1. I was very intimidated at first. I watched your video twice,first to get a general idea of what my new camera could do. Second time was better because I played with my camera. I love you books and videos. Brings back the fire I had when I was younger!
G-R-E-A-T Info!!! Unfettered, and down to earth...who wouldn't want to watch your videos!!! Was actually trying to find the best way to "tether" my 3300 to my computer (via software I know) for a shoot I have coming up.
Absolutely stellar timing! The D3300 will be my first ever camera as of this Thursday, and so buying the books made by yourself in addition to watching these guides should get me off the marks. Hopefully have some good quality images to share with you in a few months time ;)
Fantastic tutorial. I have watched a few videos on this particular camera (I purchased it in Dec), but this, by far, was the most informative and helpful. Thank you for the great video.
I love it. School in my pajamas. Avec popcorn. I wonder how many other students take plenty of blurry, overexposed, and underexposed photos of their slippers during your instructional videos. Thank you for another great learning experience.
What a great video! I've got this camera ordered and was looking for a few guides to get a head-start in regards to using it. I've watched a few videos, but I liked yours the best. Also purchased the books as I find this all very interesting and want to learn more :)
Thank you sooooo much!! I received the D3400 for Christmas & love it, but the manual that comes with it is very limited. It doesn't explain how to use the "Fn," the "+/-," or the "AEL" "AF-L" buttons. You were very thorough! You make a great teacher!
I really like how you explain stuff! I just bought the Nikon D3300 in a kit that includes the standard lens plus a 55-200 Nikor lens and a small flash (SB300), and really love the camera (my previous camera is a Canon PowerShot SX200 which was a nice point and shot for the time).
Hi Tony, A friend of mine gave me his Nikon D3200 with an 18-55 kit lens. I was wondering how to use all the features and this video was an absolute must have. Wish I could package it up and take it around with me. I do have the Nikon manual that came with the camera but confusing is an understatement. You made it clear and to the point. Kudos.
Just bought a used 3300. This was helpful. THANKS! Also, I've discovered your other videos. Really cool, really interesting. I watch what you and Chelsea do just because you two are so interesting - lol even on stuff I'm not fundamentally interested in. The video on color science was brilliant. It was a great case of defining human nature and actually helped me in doing market research for my employer (Ford Motor Co). The brand loyalty stuff and mindset issues helped me change our styling research questions. BRAVO!
Thanks Tony. Just got a d3300, your book, etc. This tut is perfect and helped me set up my camera. I absolutely loved the auto focus button reassignment. Very excited. Thanks.
Very informative session. I just bought this D3300 camera and re-started my photography after a long years ago. Thanks Tony for your informative and very helpful Vedio.
Thanks for this excellent tutorial Tony, I've had my D3300 for a while, but I've learned much better ways of using it from your video. Back button focusing is new to me, but I'm finding it very useful rather than just trusting the camera to choose what it thinks should be in focus.
Thanks for doing this video. Just got a D3300 and don't know much about DSLRs. I mainly take pictures of trains and airplanes. This will help me a great deal.
Thanks Tony exactly the kind of video I wanted! Im currently looking for a telephoto lens for the D3300. Im in the process of letting go of using Auto mode and moving to Aperture mode thanks to your vid
fantastic video, sitting on my hands waiting to pick up my D3300 tomorrow. Really enjoyed how proffessional it all was and even the disclosure on your suggestions is a nice touch. I'll look into the book if photography really catches me.. Thanks again!
Great video. I am old fashion photographer - using black and white film. So, I'm used to having complete control of my camera setting... this video really made it easier to learn how to use the digital camera without using a user guide.
Thank you for reviewing my new camera. I was overwhelmed with all the buttons and features and your video helped me focus on what was important to start shooting. I shot in RAW for the first time ever. Now to see if Picasa can fix what I couldn't seem to get right after an hour of still shots. I'm sure your book would help as well ;-)
I like your style, voice and dressing, and of course photography skills. I want to be like you, a little. Thank you for the video tutorial. I just got a D3300 a couple of days ago with 18-55 and 70-300, SD card and bag, all for $425. I've been experimenting with it a little.
thanks, I just finished watching the rest of the video and took note of your recommendation, I will travel to Japan next month, the price is much lower over there than here in Canada. thx again.
I recently got a d3300 (my first dslr) and i thoughgt i knew everything about it but actually i learned some new things. so thanks for the video, very helpful
Loved your comparison between the D3300 and D5500. I have a D90 that I love but wanted a couple features that the 3300 and 5500 have that the D90 don't. Very helpful in choosing
Hello Tony. Thanks for the awesome video and the hard work put into it, I think you've covered pretty much everything about the camera. I believe that you haven't mentioned the way to adjust the ISO in manual mode, so I thought I just add that info, which I think is important. If you press (and hold) the Fn button on the left side of the camera, you can adjust the ISO on the fly by rotating the main dial button. I find this very useful sometimes. Regards.
+Tony Northrup I have a problem, I forgot how to make water smoke like, when I make a slow shutter speed the aperture adjusts but when I take a shot, it is full white because too much light gets to the sensor, so how to create those water or lights blur photos? Also what do you think of using Dynamic Area as focusing to be sure if something in the photo moves or is moving?
Great video, waiting for the one on the Sony A7 MK2, there are plenty of videos out there, but no one explains cameras like you. Thanks for all the tutorials and reviews.
This is a brilliant tutorial, thank you so much, have just bought the D3200 and am very pleased with it, this video helps me to get the most out of it, thanks again. ;-)
Thanks for this amazing video! It was very very helpful. I have the D3200 and this showed me lots of things I haven't yet discovered. Also great tip on the flash, Ill go with the one you recommended and save a couple hundred:)
I've got the Fuji film s2 pro, and the s3 pro (both passed down from professional photographers then to my dad then me) and I just bought the nikon d3300 today and I'm super excited to start shooting.
I really enjoyed this video and I'm looking for leads to reading your book and playing with my new toy, the d3300. I'll be referencing this video all the time and I love that you have a table of contents to skip right to the part I'll need. Thank you!
Tony & Chelsea Northrup I own nikon d3200 and I want to use external flash as off camera flash for creative lighting.... Can you please suggest me trigger and receiver with speedlight I have thought about yongnuo 560-3 .... is it right voice????
Thank you for your videos and help. I have just bought a Nikon D3300 ready for my retirement hobby. I have your Stunning Digital Photography as an ebook on my ipad and it is brilliant stuff to learn from, and yes the colour of the camera is red lol. I like it!

I must agree i am on the market for the same camera, and after watching your review im confident this is what camera im getting as my first. Thank you for the great review on it.
+Cameron Klim it's a great camera, I have higher end cameras than the d3300 but I often switch back because i love it so much
I really recommend this camera I already brought one! and is very exciting watch this kind of videos
Best. Camera. Tutorial. Ever. Hands Down. Wow.

Thanks!
Thank you so much for this tutorial.

Very informative. I just purchased my D3300, I learned instantly from this video alone. Looking forward to watch more of his video tutorials. Bought the recommended accessories as well. Thank you!
This is by far the most helpful video. This guy is a good & simple speaker.
This should be used as a template as to how all instructional videos should be. Brilliant.

Agreed. I just picked up the camera on the 31st and the video has been great. Thank you Tony!
Absolutely stellar timing! The D3300 will be my first ever camera as of this Thursday, and so buying the books made by yourself in addition to watching these guides should get me off the marks.
Hopefully have some good quality images to share with you in a few months time ;)

You are a fantastic teacher. I can now maximize the potential of my camera.

You're book is such a great resource for a budding newbie such as myself.

I like your style, voice and dressing, and of course photography skills. I want to be like you, a little. Thank you for the video tutorial. I just got a D3300 a couple of days ago with 18-55 and 70-300, SD card and bag, all for $425. I've been experimenting with it a little.
Man, this was amazing. Thank you! I just got into photography as a hobby. This was super helpful with my D3300.
thanks, I just finished watching the rest of the video and took note of your recommendation, I will travel to Japan next month, the price is much lower over there than here in Canada. thx again.
Excellent video to learn about your 3200 Nikon. A million thanks Tony and Chelsea!!
I've had my d3200 for a couple of years but still found your video very usefull and picked up some great tips. Thanks :-)
I work at a Best Buy as a camera sales person and I will be giving this video link to customers!

Thank you sooooo much, I have still a lot to learn but this has been the best and most helpful tutorial I've seen.
Tony, Your tutorial was the best for d3300. i learned a lot. Thanks.
I recently got a d3300 (my first dslr) and i thoughgt i knew everything about it but actually i learned some new things. so thanks for the video, very helpful
What a big help your video was for me! You made it easy for me to understand! Thank you!!!!
Loved your comparison between the D3300 and D5500. I have a D90 that I love but wanted a couple features that the 3300 and 5500 have that the D90 don't. Very helpful in choosing

Hello Tony. Thanks for the awesome video and the hard work put into it, I think you've covered pretty much everything about the camera. I believe that you haven't mentioned the way to adjust the ISO in manual mode, so I thought I just add that info, which I think is important. If you press (and hold) the Fn button on the left side of the camera, you can adjust the ISO on the fly by rotating the main dial button. I find this very useful sometimes. Regards.
You did lol, sorry, my bad.
Thanks for the great video. I recently bought this camera and your tutorial has thought me a lot of things.
Awesome information, Tony! Thank you so much! I bought the iron man Nikon and very happy with your tutorial. I subscribed!
+Kristina Staykova Thanks, and enjoy it!
+Tony Northrup amazing video didn´t knew about back button focus...
+Tony Northrup I have a problem, I forgot how to make water smoke like, when I make a slow shutter speed the aperture adjusts but when I take a shot, it is full white because too much light gets to the sensor, so how to create those water or lights blur photos? Also what do you think of using Dynamic Area as focusing to be sure if something in the photo moves or is moving?
Great video, waiting for the one on the Sony A7 MK2, there are plenty of videos out there, but no one explains cameras like you. Thanks for all the tutorials and reviews.
RickBSO We'll probably record the a72 overview this week (along with the D810 overview), so look for it to be published in the next couple of weeks.
Tony Northrup Great, thanks.
This is a brilliant tutorial, thank you so much, have just bought the D3200 and am very pleased with it, this video helps me to get the most out of it, thanks again. ;-)

I've got the Fuji film s2 pro, and the s3 pro (both passed down from professional photographers then to my dad then me) and I just bought the nikon d3300 today and I'm super excited to start shooting.
Bought your book just now. Great book. Looking forward to completing it & mastering the techniques. Thanks Tony.Leslie
I really enjoyed this video and I'm looking for leads to reading your book and playing with my new toy, the d3300. I'll be referencing this video all the time and I love that you have a table of contents to skip right to the part I'll need. Thank you!
