Monday Beginning Camera
Class 1: Introduction and Camera Overview
Overview: We got our toes wet by making our introductions, had some technical difficulty, and identified parts of our cameras. We figured out how to change our aperture, shutter speed and ISO, plus our focal point. We also looked at images on Flickr and talked about different settings.
Resources: This will usually have some further reading.
Homework:
- Get familiar with changing your shutter speed, ISO and aperture by picking a row below and changing your settings to match it. Keep changing your settings so it starts to become second nature 🙂
