London Drugs will be offering two photography workshops, one for ‘Point and Shoot’ user and a second workshop is for the ‘Digital SLR’ user. These new workshops are designed to enhance our Jumpstart DVD experience and assist you in getting the best possible results from your digital camera. Our host is Darren Kelly, The Camera Guy, and he will guide you through the basics of photography giving you the tools to improve your everyday photography.
Each workshop is approximately 3 hours of instruction and interactive activities designed to inform and enhance your experience with your particular camera. You will learn everything from the modes and features of your camera to basic rules of composition and lighting. Our workshop activities will have you out shooting with your camera and afterwards you’ll share the results of your efforts with the group!
What you will learn:
- Pixels, White balance, ISO, shutter speeds and apertures
- Jpeg & raw files and their differences relating to your images and so much more!
- Photographic composition - what works and why
