Digital Photography - Getting Started

Course review:

In these days of tight budgets almost anyone in the team can find themselves in a situation where the camera is handed over and they are asked to 'get some pictures'. It is after all a digital camera...you point and shoot...how hard can it be? We all know the answer to that!
This practical half-day course has been designed in response to requests for a crash course to get photographic novices up to speed in terms of understanding the camera, how it works, what it can do - and how to get the pictures you need.
In relaxed and easy to understand tutorials you will learn how to set the camera up to deliver the best results....explore the various camera programmes....see the stunning results that can be achieved....as well as receiving tuition on topics ranging from dealing confidently with subjects to shooting in low or difficult light.
The course will give you the technical knowledge and camera handling skills to get the most from the main PR Photography Course. Whether you follow through to the higher level or not, you will never have to point, shoot - and hope for the best - again. That's guaranteed!Key training areas:
