Maybe you still take a lot of photos in automatic mode. Or maybe you have a general idea of what aperture, shutter speed, and ISO do, but as soon as you’re outside, it still feels like a bit of a guess.
In this hands-on introductory photography course for beginners, we're going to change that.
No long technical explanations or complicated theory. We'll head into the Schoorl Dunes and use your own camera to discover, step by step, what the most important settings do.
You'll immediately see what happens to your photo when you change the aperture yourself. What a fast or slow shutter speed does. When you adjust the ISO. And how those three factors together determine the exposure of your photo.
After two hours, you shouldn't need to know any more buttons.
Above all, you need to better understand why you're choosing a particular setting.
I deliberately work with a small group of no more than 8 participants, so that there is plenty of time to look over your shoulder while you shoot and answer your questions.
This introductory course is intended for beginner photographers with a digital camera.
