This class is tailored for those who have dabbled in manual settings but are yet to fully embrace them.
Our expert photographer will guide you through the technical aspects of manual photography, including shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and white balance, and provide you with the best camera settings to capture the perfect shot. You'll be amazed at the level of control and creativity that manual mode offers and may never want to rely on automatic settings again.
Whether you're an aspiring photographer looking to improve your skills or simply want to capture your travel memories with more precision and creativity, this course is perfect for you. Don't miss this chance to explore Canberra and elevate your photography skills to the next level!
In this class, we will cover:
- Manual photography
- Adjusting your exposure
- Aperture
- Depth of field
- Shutter speed
- Fill flash
This photography class is designed to provide you with plenty of personalized attention by running in small groups. You'll receive individualized help to master manual mode and gain the confidence you need to take stunning photos. By the end of the class, you'll be equipped with the skills to move beyond auto mode for good.
