Photography 102 (Manual Exposure for Dslr)

Course details

Become a versatile photographer who can switch from default modes to manual settings on professional cams for ultimate control and amazing shots! This 3-hour workshop is designed to get you familiar with the manual exposure mode, giving you complete control of your camera as well as help you master automatic and semiautomatic modes.

You will understand the fundamentals of shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, how they work together, and how to balance each of them to achieve properly exposed images. You will learn how to adjust each of these functions independently and use your camera's built-in light meter for optimal exposure. This hands-on class is the perfect follow up after you have taken the Photography 101 (PASM)
