Beginning DSLR Photography Workshop

Posted by: DeAnn Bonine

This workshop is for those who own or have recently purchased a digital SLR camera (you know, the ones you can change the lens) and are not sure how to use it other than point-and-shoot. We will explore manual settings such as ISO, aperture and shutter speed, not only defining them but how they affect your photos. You will learn all about those buttons and functions in your camera menus in order to control your camera. And we\'ll also touch on white balance, histograms, focal points, metering, lens types, and software for editing.

Every camera manufacturer is different, so bring your instruction manual and a charged battery. You will be practicing what you learn right in the classroom. The goal is for you to leave the workshop feeling comfortable with your own camera.
