Watch Hands-On Digital Camera Videos

The digital camera videos featured here should help answer many of your questions about digital cameras and help you choose the make and model that's right for you.

Although not all videos demonstrating digital cameras are created equally and you'll likely find some more beneficial than others, it's still extremely helpful watching a hands-on demo rather than simply reading a review.

Watching digital camera videos will give you a better understanding of the camera's looks, its size, main dials and buttons and other important features. Although the videos cover most major camera brands, new digital cameras hit the shelves so often that it's impossible to include all makes and models. To find specific videos, use the Search box (top left) or try one of the Video Tags on the left.

Nikon D80 - Controlling the Active Auto-Focus Area

omg thank you, i was searching through my manual trying to find how to change the focus area. of course it was as simple as the arrow buttons!!! i was starting to go crazy because the focus area was off to the side, i must have changed it on accident at some point! THANKYOU!!!

First, go to CS-2 (custom menu 2) and make sure that Single Area is selected as your focus mode, otherwise the computer will be choosing which area for you. If that doesn't work, email me back and I'd be glad to help (though I have to add, local camera retailers are excellent resources for hands-on answers to questions like these).

I'm having a problem with selecting different auto focus areas. You say that you can use the arrow keys to select any one of the eleven different areas, but that doesn't work on my D80. Help?
