SpeedScraps presents - Understanding Exposure Online Training

\\



Join this photography class and learn how easy it is to get out of Auto mode and in to Manual mode on your *DSLR. This class is based on the book ‘Understanding Exposure’ by Bryan Peterson - a fantastic resource for learning the fundamentals of making correct exposures and how to master ‘creatively correct’ exposures.

This four session class explores the photographic triangle - aperture, shutter speed, ISO - and how to take the guesswork out of shooting great photos. Class materials provide additional insights and learning tools to help you gain a firm understanding of what is presented in the class book – Understanding Exposure.

There will be a private group set up on facebook for students to post their photos, questions and discussions and receive feedback. You are also welcome to email me if you are not a facebook user or want private feedback.

In this class you will:
  • Get off Auto and into Manual Mode
  • Learn Creatively Correct vs. Correct Exposures
  • Explore the Photographic Triangle - Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO
  • Gain an understanding of the Light Meter
  • Study how aperture is used to create storytelling vs. single theme photos
  • Discuss how Shutter Speed affects the motion of a photo
  • Discover where to take meter readings
Class size is limited to 15, so hurry and register today! (Minimum of 6 participants or class will be cancelled.)

Class requirements:
Participating in this class requires the student to have a copy of the book ‘Understanding Exposure’ by Bryan Peterson. This book must be purchased, separately, by the student. The Revised Edition or 3rd Edition are suitable for this class.
