## Camera Essentials
CAMERA ESSENTIALS has been designed to allow beginners or those wanting to refresh their photography skills to Master the elements of Photography.
- Camera Essentials – we re-introduce you to your camera and explain camera handling, menu navigation, good habits, basic composition and many tips/tricks. You’ll gain confidence in handling your specific camera so you can shoot creative images using composition, easy techniques and simple effects rather than relying on auto mode.
You’ll learn in the field in a small group (4 to 10 students) with two professional photographers available for groups over 6 to give you that extra one-on-one focus and attention.
Camera Essentials will set you up for a lifetime of creative expression with your camera. For more details on each Workshop please click the links above.1 attendee
