Hi Jean:You have a great little camera! I have an older Olympus 450Z.
The very best advise I can give you is to have the camera in hand and
the book open. Learn the very basics. . that the card is in, that the
batteries are good, how to open the lense and where the button to
take the picture is. Once that's understood, go take some pictures of
anything. . and view them. Once you do that, then read some more and
experiment. Learn how to erase and format. . learn how to zoom in and
out. Honest, it's not difficult if you break it down into pieces.
Rather like eating an elephant. . you know, "one bite at a time." One
of the most wonderful features of a digital is that you are not
wasting film so just get out there and take pictures. Practice,
evaluate what you've taken, learn from your mistakes. Oh, and don't
take it all so seriously. . have fun learning and don't be hard on
yourself. It'll all fall into place!!
