I was so excited to start the first class but was very uneasy on what to expect. It was a relief once class started that I was not the only one that didn't know how to work my camera.
I learned alot of things NOT to do with my camera such as don't shoot in the Auto mode! We were told to scratch off the Auto green button because we would never use it again! This really scared me as that is what I use most of the time. Manuel mode is what we will be using from now on! Also the correct way to hold your camera which is.... left hand under the lens with palm up! Try it and I bet it feels weird as you more than likely don't hold it that way!
We watched a short video on The 6 Lies or Photography. Very cute and funny! We talked alot about aperture and shutter speeds. I also have to learn them all and we are going to get quizzed next week and I thought this was going to be a breeze WRONG!!!!
We also talked about the light meter on our cameras. So much to learn!
Now to study those apertures and shutter speeds for next week and I thought this was going to be a FUN class!!!
I am SO excited you started this blog. Be sure you post your practice pictures so you can see your progress throughout the class. You are going to do great!
