Digital Photography Course Part 1 (Beginners)

Venue:   Moulton Community Centre, Northants

Price:   £125 including lunch and refreshments

If you have recently acquired your first DSLR or Mirrorless Camera or are struggling to get beyond Auto mode then this course will show you how to take control of your camera to achieve images that you can really be proud of.

On this one day workshop you will learn about:

* How a digital camera works
* Choosing the appropriate shooting mode
* Obtaining the correct exposure
* How to use shutter speed, aperture and ISO
* Dealing with white balance
* Composition tips
* Creative focusing
* Mastering depth of field
* Lenses and other equipment
* Camera techniques
* ……and much more

This is not just about learning the facts, however, we will also show you how to use this knowledge to achieve the shots you want to take. Best of all we will share many tips and tricks that the manual doesn’t tell you for getting the most out of your camera and how to deal with awkward shooting conditions to ensure you still get a great shot.

This course will provide in depth knowledge suitable for use in all photographic genres including landscapes, sports, action, portraits, architecture, etc.

Alongside the theory, the day will also include the opportunity for you to practice what you have learnt with guidance from your tutors. You should therefore bring your camera with you so that you can learn where the relevant controls are on your equipment and understand how to use them.

With a maximum class size of just eight and two tutors there will be the opportunity for one-to-one attention during the practical sessions to ensure that you are getting the most from the day.

The workshop will be held at Moulton Community Centre in Northamptonshire and includes a lunch and refreshments throughout the day. The course will commence at 10am and finish around 4pm.
