Nikon D3200 Manuel utilisateur
Introduction
Throw away your cheat-sheets and command cards! Are you tired of squinting
at tiny color-coded tables on fold-out camera cards? Do you wish you had the
most essential information extracted from my comprehensive David Busch’s
Nikon D3200 Guide to Digital SLR Photography in a size you could tuck away
in your camera bag? I’ve condensed the basic reference material you need in
this handy, lay-flat book, David Busch’s Compact Field Guide for the Nikon
D3200. In it, you’ll find the explanations of why to use each setting and
option—information that is missing from the cheat-sheets and the book pack-
aged with the camera. You won’t find the generic information that pads out the
other compact guides. I think you’ll want to have both this reference and my
full-sized guide—one to help you set up and use your Nikon D3200, and the
other to savor as you master the full range of things this great camera can do.

Chapter 1
Quick Setup Guide
This chapter contains the essential information you need to get your Nikon
D3200 prepped and ready to go. You’ll learn how to use a few of the basic
controls and features, and how to transfer your photos to your computer. If you
want a more complete map of the functions of your camera, skip ahead to
Chapter 2. Live view is touched on only briefly in this chapter; if you want to
begin using live view or shoot movies immediately, check out Chapter 6.
Pre-Flight Checklist
The initial setup of your Nikon D3200 is fast and easy. You just need to learn
a few controls, charge the battery, attach a lens, and insert a Secure Digital
card.
Charging the Battery
When the battery is inserted into the MH-24 charger properly (it’s impossible
to insert it incorrectly), an orange Charge light begins flashing, and remains
flashing until the status lamp glows steadily, indicating that charging is fin-
ished, generally within two to three hours. When the battery is charged, slide
the latch on the bottom of the camera and ease the battery in, as shown in
Figure 1.1.
Introducing Menus and the Multi Selector
You’ll find descriptions of most of the controls used with the Nikon D3200 in
Chapter 2, which provides a complete “roadmap” of the camera’s buttons and
dials and switches. However, you may need to perform a few tasks during this
initial setup process, and most of them will require the MENU button and the
multi selector pad.

■ MENU button. It’s located to the left of the LCD, the second button
from the top. When you want to access a menu, press it. To exit most
menus, press it again.
■ Multi selector pad. A thumbpad-sized button with indentations at the
North, South, East, and West “navigational” positions, plus a button in
the center marked “OK” (see Figure 1.2). With the D3200, the multi
selector is used exclusively for navigation; for example, to navigate among
menus on the LCD or to choose one of the eleven focus points, to advance
or reverse display of a series of images during picture review, or to change
the kind of photo information displayed on the screen. The OK button is
used to confirm your choices and send the image currently being viewed
to the Retouch menu for modification.

Setting the Clock
The in-camera clock might have been set for you by someone checking out your
camera prior to delivery, but if you do need to set it, the flashing CLOCK indi-
cator on the LCD will be the giveaway. Press the MENU button to the left of
the LCD, and then use the multi selector to scroll down to the Setup menu (it’s
marked with a wrench icon), press the multi selector button to the right, and
then press the down button to scroll down to Time Zone and Date, and press
the right button again. The options will appear on the screen that appears next.
Mounting the Lens
If your D3200 has no lens attached, you’ll need to mount one before
shooting:
1. Select the lens and loosen (but do not remove) the rear lens cap.
2. Remove the body cap on the camera by rotating the cap toward the lens
release button.
3. Once the body cap has been removed, remove the rear lens cap from the
lens, set it aside, and then mount the lens on the camera by matching the
alignment indicator on the lens barrel with the white dot on the camera’s
lens mount (see Figure 1.3). Rotate the lens toward the shutter release
until it seats securely.
4. Set the focus mode switch on the lens to AF or M/A (Autofocus). If the
lens hood is bayoneted on the lens in the reversed position, twist it off and
remount with the “petals” (if present) facing outward. A lens hood pro-
tects the front of the lens from accidental bumps, and reduces flare caused
by extraneous light arriving at the front of the lens from outside the pic-
ture area.
