Understanding your SLR

I am happy to announce that I'll be giving a course next Saturday - July 20th!  

I have found that there are a lot of folks out there who get an SLR (single lens reflex camera - a camera body with separate lenses that you can change such as a Canon T3i or 60D; a Nikon D5200 or D7000; or Sony A55) with the intention of learning how to use it, but they end up leaving it in an automatic mode most of the time or don't use it at all because they haven't figured it out yet.  This course will teach you how to navigate the basics of the camera so that you can really take advantage of what an SLR has to offer by shooting in manual mode.  

Some of the topics we will cover are:

- The basics of manual mode: ISO, aperture, and shutter speed

- Metering and bracketing

- Lens choice

- Focal points

- Composition

Shooting time is built into the course so you can put into practice what you learn right away and receive some guidance about how to get the shot you want.  Participants should bring their camera (including cards and batteries), lenses, camera manual, and something for taking notes.
