Step-by-step assistance, always at your side: Guide mode
The guide mode leads you through each step of camera
operation required to take your ideal still pictures and movies.
If you wish to create a picture with a blurred background
emphasizing the subject, simply turn the mode dial to “GUIDE”
and select “soften backgrounds” from the “Shoot/Advanced
operation” option. The camera displays an assist image, so that
you can confirm how the setting will change your picture. The
D3300’s guide mode offers a new “Retouch” option, providing
assistance to in-camera image editing. With this guide mode,
beginners can easily control the camera to achieve the pictures
they want, all the while learning about digital-SLR photography!

without the need to adjust many settings. Simply rotate
the mode dial to one of six icons according to your
subject — portrait, landscape, child, sports, close up, and
night portrait. The D3300 automatically chooses the most
appropriate settings and delivers beautiful image results.
