My old, but New Camera

I have an older model camera but, today it looked and actually felt brand new. My camera is a Canon Rebel IOS T3 that has been sitting on a shelf in a corner collecting dust. I took it down off from the shelf to have another look at it. Probably as many of you can attest to, some that started out being a simple inspection turned into a full blown project. Some of you may have guessed it. I turned to my computer, launched the YouTube app, and there I was, totally engaged with a tutorial telling me to look at what all my camera could do with just a little tweaking.When It made me look at the settings, Quickly I realized that my using three modes from the settings for the camera opened my eyes to how limited my picture taking experience had been, which was  nothing less than perfunctionary at best.From that point on through the rest of the day, I was likes kid with a brand new toy.
