Camera Basics for Beginners
New to digital photography? Not sure which camera to buy? No worries, we've got you covered! Photography 101 is perfect for you! In this 3-hour workshop, you'll learn the fundamentals of photography through tonnes of hands-on exercises and an outdoor photowalk. We'll teach the basics of photography like lighting, exposure, aperture, shutter speed and ISO and their combined effects on an image. You'll be controlling different settings of a camera step by step with a lot of individual attention from the instructor. We believe that one needs to have some actual experiences of using a digital camera, and the essential photography knowledge in order to know what camera and lenses to buy. We keep the class size to 6 so that everyone can move at the same pace.
