A Group session for up to 6 people covering everything you need to know to move away from Auto settings and get the most from your camera. Places are limited. Please only book a place if you intend to attend.

The session will cover:

Basic camera settings;
ISO,
Shutter Priority,
Aperture Priority,
Manual,
white balance,
‘f’ stops and depth of field,
exposure compensation, and
focussing.

You’ll learn basic principles of photography, with the emphasis on practical work to help develop and consolidate your learning.

Although I can’t promise to offer personal guidance on the use of your own camera – there are far too many makes and models for us to have detailed knowledge of them all – I’ll domy best to provide clear advice on main features available on the majority of equipment. Using your own camera, you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and apply your learning to the specific features available on your make and model.

Practical work is based around activities within the studio and surrounding area. Activities are designed to help you gain confidence in use of different camera settings to affect the final image.

Groups have a maximum of 6 people, ensuring that you have the fullest opportunity to make the most of your session. All sessions take place in my fully equipped studio.

What you’ll need:

DSLR, Mirrorless or Bridge camera (Compact Camera users may attend but will find some features are limited)
Charged battery
An empty memory card (don’t forget to clear any images from it in advance)
Instruction Manual (Full version is possible)
