The Basics

Photography ...

The typical novice photographer often finds their camera confusing, so they seldom leave "Program" or "Auto" mode. As you start to better understand the basic functions of your camera, an entire new world of photography will be opened to you ... and the images you capture will be increasingly satisfying.

This class is aimed at both the novice, or more experienced photographer, who wants an better understanding of their camera and advanced photographic techniques.

The main elements of using your camera to capture great images include:

  • Understanding cameras basic function
  • exposure
  • aperature
  • shutter speed
  • iso
  • manual mode
  • depth of field
  • composition & rule of thirds

We cover all these areas during our "Photographic Fundamentals Class" which is held before each of our monthly meetings at 6pm. Each session is responsive to the specific questions and challenges of those attending. After a single session you can be capturing better images.
