We’ve produced a twenty minute video tutorial on the basics of pocket cameras. It includes operation of the camera controls like the zoom and close-up mode, coping with batteries and memory chips, and the mechanics of downloading photos into Adobe Photoshop Elements™. It’s intended for people just getting into digital photography who need an orientation to what’s going on.

The video is a 30MB file, so you will need a fast internet connection. If the playback stutters, try pausing the video for a minute to give the file transfer time to catch up.
