» Lesson 1: First things first: digital photography is easy!
Capturing exciting photos with your digital camera and sharing them with others is simple—don't let anyone tell you otherwise! You don’t even need a computer to get great prints. All you really need is a camera and a photo printer. A PC just adds to what you can do.
Lesson 2: Getting your photos out of the camera for sharing or archiving
You can't do much with your pictures if they're sitting in your camera. In this lesson, you'll learn how photo files are labeled by the camera when you take them, how to transfer them from your camera to your computer or printer and why you need your own system for organizing them.

Lesson 4: Ready, set, print!
Once you've got that perfect photo, it's time to print. Digital photography offers several printing options—and you don't even need a PC! In this lesson, you'll learn how to make prints several ways with an emphasis on choosing the solution that works best for you.
Lesson 5: Creative uses for your photos
