Digital Photography I: How to Use a Digital Camera

© Amanda Keller-Konya
Owning a digital Single Lens Reflex (SLR) camera can be both exciting and challenging.
This one-day course will assist students in understanding the controls and functions of their digital SLR’s. Amanda Keller-Konya will teach camera menu options such as image quality & size, focus & exposure modes, and color space & white balance settings. Fundamental technical information including aperture, shutter speed, ISO and exposure will also be discussed. Throughout the day, workshop participants will have opportunities to experiment shooting with their new skills. By the end of this hands-on intensive workshop, each photographer will be well on the way to achieving successful digital capture.
