How to Capture Awesome Images
with your DSLR, Beginners — Level 1
Taking pictures with your DSLR is easy, just set it on
auto and shoot away. Capturing GOOD pictures with
your DSLR… that's harder! Quality photography starts
with understanding how to set your exposure manually.
This is NOT difficult to do. In this 2-hour workshop we'll
cover aperture, shutter speed and ISO and show you
how to change them on your camera. Next, we'll discuss
how to use these manual settings to create the images
you want. We'll practice bracketing your exposure to
ensure you get the right shot and more! We will also
cover the use of polarizers and capturing images in
the RAW format.
