Camera and composition
This course is for beginner level students who want to understand how their SLR
film or digital camera works (this would also include a high end compact digital
camera). Over the duration of the course, we will cover all the basic aspects of
camera handling including: exposure, depth-of-field, focus, focal length and programme
options (if you have them).
Alongside this we will explore (through 2 photo-taking assignments) the impact
that the technical aspects have on the composition of your photograph. Students
need to bring their camera and manual (if you have one) to the first class.
Maximum enrolment is 7.
