Content and Overview

This course is divided into two broad components: first we cover all the technical aspects, like camera equipment and support, as well as the camera’s most important settings. After that we look at the artistic side of photography, which focuses on light, composition and creativity.

It has been structured in such a way that you won’t ever feel overwhelmed by technical jargon, complicated camera functions or obscure principles. The aim is to keep everything as clear and simple as possible, and this was achieved by tackling each important photographic element separately in short and concise lectures that last between 2 and 5 minutes each. The majority of lectures consist of both teacher-style video clips (where I explain a setting, principle or tip) and slides, both of which contain photographic examples and audio (where I interpret each photographic example).

THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL LEARN FROM THIS COURSE:

How to use your Camera Equipment:

  • How to hold your camera correctly, which helps you to get sharp photos every time.
  • Which lenses to use for which photos, so that you can best capture a specific subject or scene.
  • How to change lenses correctly in order to prevent irritating dust spots from forming on each photograph.
  • What your DSLR camera’s limitations are and how to compensate for them when you’re photographing scenes with high contrast.
  • Why and when you should support your camera on tripods and bean bags.

How and when to change Camera Settings:

  • Different Shooting modes(which allows you to be more creative).
  • File size and format(ensuring that you take the best possible quality shots).
  • White balance and Metering mode (which allows you to influence the ‘warmth’ or ‘coolness’ of your photos and the way that the camera exposes what it sees.
  • Drive mode(which allows you to shoot like a pistol or like a machine gun).
  • Autofocus mode(which tells the camera whether you’re photographing something standing still or something that is moving).
  • Autofocus point selection(which allows you to focus on either the whole subject or scene or on a very specific part of it).
  • ISO(which allows you to take sharp photos in low light conditions)
  • Exposure compensation(which allows you to quickly make a photo lighter or darker).
  • How to influence the depth of field in your photos in Aperture Priority.
  • How to freeze action or capture movement in Shutter Priority.
  • How to use the little pictures, or Scene selections, on your camera’s Shooting mode dial.
