EOS Rebel T7, Noob trying get back to the regular live view screen

Be kind and help a lady out. I am brand new and want to jump in to photography. I recently purchased this bundle and am starting to play with it. I cannot get the camera off magnify...it's zoomed in so close on the live view screen. I have done everything Google has told me to do and I cannot get it back to regular view. I am positive its the operator...are there any 10 year old that can help me out?

Sharing,

Have you tried turning your camera off and then back on to see if it resets itself?

Have looked at page 156 of your Manual?

It should be the button with the little ‘+’ magnifying glass. Keep pushing it until the magnification goes away.
That said, you should really get used to using the viewfinder. That is a much better way to take still photos, if only because of the extra stability it provides to steady the camera.

Shari,

If you haven't done so yet, I'd encouage you to download your manual in pdf form.

Using the search functions of a pdf Reader like Adobe Acrobat, you can find the answers to specific questions. I know it has made my life a lot easier.
