[@aubreymoodie1081]

I’m 14 and just got into photography I have my moms Nikon d3200 that she bought 13 years ago she never used it to the full extent and just did family photos she was very excited that I was learning to use it and this video really helped thank you for taking your time to help out new photographers.

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thanks for the comment. Makes me feel great that I was able to help.

[@sanaayasureka8256]

Same here. Except I'm 11 years old.

[@white_boy_billy6201]

same lol exept im 15

[@munzekonza4861]

Nikon d3200 was released in 2012 ,so that couldnt be true

[@aubreymoodie1081]

@@munzekonza4861 i meant to say like 13 years ago beacuse its so old

[@jeffcarle4991]

I’ve watched 10-12 reviews and this review is well beyond the others in terms of what is explained and how well it’s explained. Thanks

[@shylo0420]

TY so much!! My mom got this for a trip 2 yrs ago and I just fell in love with photography recently. You have been a HUGE help. TY so so much!

[@pokerfacetv4644]

Does it have a port for HDMI, external mic, and headphones

[@aubreymoodie1081]

Same my mom got hers 13 years ago for a family trip and I now am really into photography!

[@williampeterson-lh1ql]

Just bought the camera with no manual. Its my first DSLR so everything is new to me. I've watched a couple of videos before yours and they all seem to forget the very basic, such as getting to the viewfinder. Thank you very much 😁👍

[@thomask1437]

Good luck shooting. You can find manual online. It's a great camera just got back from Italy I took over 1,400 pictures and all look great. Take care Thomas from Kansas City

[@leeweieng1534]

Tq for this useful video. Bought my camera in 2014 and only now at 61, am having a go, after retirement.

[@rentcda]

Mike, loved how humble and eager you are to share! I want to learn to take pictures myself and you were just so authentic! I just became a sub! Thanks!

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thanks. I definitely appreciate the feedback.

[@lodio7699]

Bought one of these years a go used it a few times for holidays , wanted to pick it back up as a hobby , thankyou for this review this was very usefull.

[@blaqkdymeN]

I really wish you would have covered the most important buttons (shooting modes) on top of the camera as well. But thanks for the advice.

[@charliegogs]

Me and my dad are swapping my 1000d canon for his d3200, this video was so helpful! As an aviation photography, you always should shoot in manual, great to know how to operate it now ❤️❤️

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thank you for the comment. Very cool. Manual for aviation for high shutterspeed shots? Things happen fast with planes.

[@b-eleven]

I'm 13 and just got my uncle's nikon d3200 which he really doesn't use, this tutorial helped really well but i was distracted checking out the camera lol, it has been sitting there collecting dust in a bag for a while now so i thought i'd finally use it, once i get my parents' permission ima try getting into photography, this tutorial helped really well as well!

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thanks for the positive feedback.

[@madarauchha9257]

Gonna buy d3200 tomorrow for budget dslr to start my photography journeys

[@MikeAldercreative]

Hell yes. Glad to see it.

[@MayhewMayhem]

This was my first DSLR as well and I agree its a great beginner camera. It's not low end but also not high end so great for the price and has worked well for me for years.

[@wilfredterry8569]

Please could you tell more about cameras especially what you view better cameras for beginners and then a little bit about the top end range

[@AnjelicaLynch]

Hey Mike, This is my first DSLR as well, and I’m learning how to use it as well. I appreciate your video. It was really helpful and informative. You’re a great presenter and made everything easy to follow. Thank you for this upload 😊

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate that....

[@zinodays1007]

If i can just say, when you take the lens off, never have the body of the camera pointing upwards as there is always a risk of dust etc landing on the mirror.

[@MikeAldercreative]

Agreed.

[@erwin69l]

If it lands on the mirror?? What happens ? Would there be a way to clean it

[@rubenfdez2989]

@@erwin69l There's a way to clean the sensor manually, but that camera model has a option of cleaning the sensor automatically. Cleaning it manually may cause damage to your sensor and it's not easily repairable. You can search “how to clean your camera sensor manually” or something like that in KZbin and you'll see how to do it

[@NGameReviews]

@@erwin69l if it lands on the mirror then it may fall onto the sensor at some point. And in certain situations, those sensor spots can turn up in your photos.

[@laharidintakurthi4422]

I bought this in 2013 out of anger on someone who decided to not lend his camera to me. But loved it and still have it with me. Nice video.

[@patrickgagne8795]

Thank you for posting this. I just bought this camera from marketplace and had no idea where to start

[@nickmurray1780]

Hey man idk if your gonna see this but just got the d3200 now from my grandpa who didn’t want it anymore. It’s my first dslr too and I was totally lost with the buttons but this video legit saved me. Thanks man!

[@MikeAldercreative]

Thanks man. It feels good to know I was able to help someone.

[@pleasedontfeedtheai2341]

Thnx for info, borrowed this camera from a friend and your vid gave me a quick condensed tutorial as I have a shoot in the morning. Cheers

[@MikeAldercreative]

Go get em....Thanks for comment.

[@towman5]

I just bought myd3200 at a thrift store and your video really helped me learn some functions on this camera.

[@danielparison528]

Thought you were gonna explain the buttons on the dial (thus M,A,S,P,etc)…all the same great video. You explained it all well..thank you 👏❤

[@hi-tech55]

Thanks for your review. It helped immensely. It’s been in the back of the cupboard for a while because I couldn’t remember how to use it. Now I have dusted it off. Thanks again

[@johnfarley4201]

Good review helping lots of people. Many thanks old chap.

[@alicemybirdknowscovid-1912]

Thanks for the video. I started with a Nikon D90. I want just a few more megapixels. And to have a second camera on hand. I am a hobbyist. Thanks again. Great pics!

[@dave3432]

Thanks! I bought this probably after it came out and now I am finally trying to learn. Good job.

[@talilove2740]

I love the sincerity in this video. I was gifted one and I'm clueless yet excited! :)

[@babatundealimi4630]

I just get d3200 today so I want to start learning how to use it thx bro ❤

[@aliciapaxton1346]

Hi Mike i love your tutorial. Keeping it simple explaining, so hard to find that on here! ive just started a photography course. Everyone seems to know what they are doijg though apart from. me. Do you have a video explaining f stops and aperture iso? its all very overwhelming.

[@MikeAldercreative]

I don't yet but i just may make one now. :)

[@aliciapaxton1346]

[@iamwhoiam8946]

Thanks will need this tomorrow when I am setting up my camera for the first time. This is a first DSLR for me too and I have got to say the few photos I took just for fun didn't come out good this will definitely help me learn all the buttons since my camera is second hand and not all buttons have icons(scratched off).

[@YourStoryStudios]

Great overview! I learned a couple of things and will need to test them out.

[@niccarterjones]

Thanks great review that helped me decide on my next second hand buy

I plugged in a wired lavalier. Do I need to turn of the mic of this camera in order for the lavalier to work? It's not working for me!

[@MikeAldercreative]

hmm not sure. I had a mic with on off switch and i just turned it on and plugged in and it was all good.

[@javieruriel]

I just got one of those cameras for 200 do you think it worth ?

[@ilovetacos210]

I just did too at the pawn shop. $209 and I wouldn't have bought it if it weren't a good deal. I'm seeing the bodies alone for around $150-$190 on eBay, mine came with multiple lenses and some accessories as well.

[@linzylina4727]

Is it good for video and still sport photos? Can I use it for that?

[@MikeAldercreative]

Yes. Just up shutter speed. Look for videos on sports photography with the 3200. They are out there. :)

[@bencorlett9011]

I like how you keep it basic. Thanks a lot

[@tararaeha]

I have the same exact camera from my dad but it’s not turning on? How would I turn it on? I see the on and off but when I switch it to on, nothing works. Does it need a charger?

[@MikeAldercreative]

Yes. I would start there.

[@boiyeahyeah5017]

My d3200 refuses to take pictures even with flash if i dont have enough light. Any tips how to fix this? Trying to take pictures in a dark room with my flash on.

Great video. Will pick this up also as my first DSLR camera... Can't wait to start shooting with it 😁

[@milly.warrenn]

can i use it to record youtube videos?

[@MikeAldercreative]

@@milly.warrenn it does do video but there are probably better options for KZbin videos. Look it up here on KZbin. If you already own one then yeah by all means make videos with it. But if you are still looking for a camera to make videos look for a solid 4k video camera.

[@atomicradiotheater]

Such a lovely walkthrough video, you're a good fellow doing good work my friend! Are you still enjoying the Nikon?

[@MikeAldercreative]

I am. I went full frame a couple of years ago though. I now shoot with a Nikon D750. I hope to do a video on it soon. Thank You for the comment.

[@atomicradiotheater]

@@MikeAldercreative I used to have an old pentax around 2000. After it was stolen, I gave up on photography but recently picked up a second hand D3200 and this video was a great refresher!
