I just found out about CameraSim a couple of days ago and I am VERY much looking forward to the release of this simulator. There are a few web browser-based Camera Simulators that teach you everything you need to know about Shutter, Aperture and ISO. But CameraSim 3D takes it a step further and puts you into a virtual world (very much like current gen quality environments found in AAA Video games). Check out the preview to see how awesome it looks and feels. It remains to be seen just how many real-world situations will be in this Sim. The purpose is of the sim is to not only teach you everything you need to know about dSLR cameras, but to train you in how to approach each photography situation you may run into in real life. I did shoot the creator a note asking if things like Night Shooting, Surfing (other high action sports), Waterfalls, Time Lapse photography would be included. So far I haven't heard back. Don't expect to either. Still looking forward to see what it does have.

CameraSim 3D Demo (http://camerasim.com/apps/camerasim/)

Above link takes you right to the demo to test and play around with. It's more of tutorial on how to use it on your computer. Keyboard shortcuts and stuff. But it does offer a taste of what's to come. The demo is for PC/Macs. Just like the first version of the Sim (which isn't 3d btw), they will have apps for Cell Phones and Tablets as well. So, you will be able to practice your photography skills anywhere, any time and never have to have a real camera on hand. How cool is that?
