Introduction to Photography

Waikato Photographic Society – Workshop: Introduction to Photography

Do you want to get more out of your camera? Do you get confused over when you look at the various settings and dials? Do you wish you could control things like depth of field and motion blur?

This beginner’s workshop will get you up to speed on the basics of how your camera works, and more importantly, how you can take control of your camera to get the photos you want. Whether you’ve been shooting for 2 weeks or 2 years, if you are still shooting in auto, this class is for you.

During this Introductory Photography Workshop, you will learn the following:
- How a camera works
- Aperture
- Shutter Speed
- ISO
- Exposure Triangle
- Depth of Field
- Aperture Priority Mode
- Shutter Speed Priority Mode
- Manual Mode
- Composition

With hands on learning we will give you the confidence to take your camera out of auto mode and dial in your own settings to get the photo you want to take.

You will need to bring your camera that is capable of shooting in manual and semi manual modes (not necessarily a DSLR). If you are in doubt contact us before booking to come.
