I received a Nikon D3300 with a 18-55mm VR Lens for Christmas and I'd like to ask for a starting learning point how to use it to the fullest. Never really used an SLR camera before.

For example, I have pretty shaky hands and the VR image stabilization doesn't seem to work at all, even when it's enabled on the lens itself. Also what accessories are a must?

Picture in the post is from playing around with the camera for a few hours. EXIF data retained in image for maximum judge.

/p/ is not the best place to get such questions answered. I would suggest going through Youtube, there are plenty of channels for photography basics.

What you did with that pic you posted is you zoomed in all the way in with your lens, which ifs f3.5 when it's at its widest (18mm) and f5.6 when you zoomed it at 55mm. Basically the smaller the f-number the more open the lens is and more light gets to the sensor. When it's dark naturally you'd want more light to reach your sensor.

Photography can be summed up with: how much light (the f-number) reaches your sensor (ISO number) for how long (shutter speed). All you have to do to get your exposure the way you want it is to get these three factors in check.

Also, your pic is probably down to holding technique. You can google how to hold a camera for max stability

Now get off /p/ and never return. It's bad for your photography and your sanity

remember, /p/...

as time passes, it won't matter what body or lens you used, whether you were on aperture priority or manual, what focus mode you were in...

it's not about shutter speed or aperture or depth of field

it's about depth of feel

always remember this, /p/

Yes.

The first problem is that you're so used to being a millenial that you never learned when to hold the shift key or when to start a new sentence.
The second problem is that your photography is boring generic shit. No-one outside of photographers and the plebiest of plebs enjoys pictures of bridges or buildings. I get that you live in an urban environment and have no inspiration but your photography doesn't need to reflect that. Aim big. Aim high and when you think you're ready pull the trigger and fucking kys my manpai.

newfag here. pic unrelated

did I really just read someone recommended an Ursa mini over an FS5 like it was an easy choice?

BMD is the harbor freight of the camera world. If you don't get that reference go ask your dad.

I've seen the magenta issues and DOA units myself. It's the Fisher Price "my first camera" of the video world. The best thing about the camera is the sensor, which I'll admit is tasty. But past that you get what you pay for.

Hell I work at a dealer and have seen so many of these guys come back my head spins.

If you're in the market just save up a little extra and wait for the flood of lightly used FS7s to go on clearance when the m2 releases in Jan. They may even drop the price increase when the m2 drops.

I've never done photography and know virtually nothing about DSLRs, but I just got given a Canon EOS 400d because my friend replaced his camera.
Is this camera still good for a beginner to use? My friend said it was ancient.
Also I saw a picture here of a huge list of things to take photos of but I didn't save it, does anyone have it?
Lastly, any tips on beginning? Not about what to take photos of but more about camera operation.

With film photography the body is the least important part. It's the film you're using and the lenses (as in optical quality) that matter.

Just get a nice working body that does the things you want. Maybe you want only manual, maybe you want only "auto" mode.

I would recommend Pentax ME super. It's all metal, it's compact, it has aperture priority mode and it has a manual mode. The old manual Pentax lenses are also great. You can get a very nice set-up very cheaply.
