Description

This course is for those who have had their digital SLR for a while, those who bought it on the promise of being able to take it out of the box and with ONE simple push of the button create those award winning images that hang on the wall for decades.

Well, it just isn`t that simple! There is a lot to these cameras and one stroll through the menu tells you that! The options are dizzying, to say the least! There are many modes that are supposed to help you get that perfect portrait, the perfect landscape, the perfect sports shot. BUT what is really going on in these modes?

There are so many options that most people put the camera in the full auto mode and it then becomes a VERY expensive point and shoot camera. Well, relax- there is hope! There are a few of these menu functions that are absolutely critical to you getting the image you want. There are a lot of them that don`t matter at all.

Find all of that out here in this jam packed class that will have you truly understanding YOUR digital SLR.

Find out the top three things that ruin good images because the photographer doesn`t understand their camera. Find out when those auto modes are your best friend, and find out the times to absolutely stay away from them! Find out how to get tack sharp images! Find out how to get out of that camera the images you have always dreamed of making!
