Photography 102 - Getting to Know Your Camera

A lot of you might be really interested in this class. This is a great follow up from our previous course, Photography 101. Photography 102 is going to cover the essentials of mastering your camera. The purpose of this course is to get you away from "Auto" mode and start taking control over your images. After this class you are going to be able to understand: 1. Aperture and f stops and what to use it for what situations 2. Shutter speed and how to stop and blur motion 3. ISO in low light and bright situations, grainy and non-grainy 4. The M, A, S, P, Tv, Av modes on your camera 5. The crop factor and what it means for your printed photos 6. The basics of you on camera flash and when to use and not to use it This class is estimated to last anywhere to 3-4 hours and after each topic we will do a hands on activity to experiment with the new techniques you just learned. At the very end of the event we have scenarios and situations in which you learn when to apply the different controls of your camera. After this class you will be able to know when to use what shutter speed with what aperture and ISO to capture the image you are trying to convey in your mind. This class is great for those who want a better understanding of their camera and how to control, rather than having the camera control you. This class and every class there after will be $50 that you can pay when you RSVP for the class. This class is going to be fun one and will be a huge learning experience for all of those who attend. DSLRs, Compacts, Film SLRs and Point-n-Shoot cameras are welcome
