Our Essential Digital Photography Class will meet 6 ALTERNATE Monday evenings on the dates listed above. The instructor will discuss how digital cameras work and help you make the most of your camera to capture that image. Whether your camera is a Point and Shoot, a Bridge (Hybrid) Camera or Digital SLR this class will identify the key parts of the camera that contribute to good photography.
Participants must be a member of the Silvercom Computer and Technology Club or pay the Instructor the $5 membership fee at the first class.
This class is geared toward the novice camera owner, or camera owner who wants to expand their understanding of digital camera photography. Within the class we will guide you to look at your camera manual to highlight those features that must all be working correctly to take a sharp, well exposed, interesting photograph. We will clarify what most of the dials, buttons and menu items mean.
We will encourage individual and group exploration between the class sessions. There will be exercises where you are urged to “Go out and shoot”!. Participants may join the Silveridge Camera Club on their regular outings to gain from the knowledge and expertise of the advanced members.
