Online: Beyond the Basics- Understanding Manual Exposure

Recommended prerequisite:

Basic understanding of Aperture, Shutter, ISO & What Exposure is

Beginner Photography understanding

Instructor: Emily Hojnowski

Class Level: Beyond Basic

Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.

After learning “the basics” of digital photography, become more comfortable in the world of digital photography by taking the next step.
For some photographers, there is only the manual mode. But why is it important to shoot in the Manual mode? Are there reasons to use manual vs. Aperture priority and vice-versa? How can we maximize usability?
While our Beginner class scratches the surface of these functions, our Beyond the Basics class goes over in-depth:
-Your Camera’s Light Meter and how it works
-Use of Aperture Priority vs. Manual modes
-Histograms
-Photographing in RAW vs. Jpeg
Understanding the full-functionality of your camera is a necessity to improving your flexibility when photographing in a variety of situations. This course is designed to help you feel more comfortable about how to change your camera’s settings in those situations. It is recommended as a follow-up to our Beginner Photography course.
