Demystifying Your Digital Camera
“Demystifying your Digital Camera” class is your introduction to working in the digital environment. Are you confused about how to take pictures with a digital camera you do not understand? This class will show you how your camera works, and then help you to optimize your camera for your specific needs. You will learn how to get the best quality images and acquire an in-depth understanding of digital imaging, including resolution, software, and printers.
This class is designed for those who want to understand how to use their digital camera for the best results. All aspects of successful digital imaging will be covered.
The follow-up to this class is Photoshop Made Easy, where you will begin to make local adjustments-as to the brightness, contrast, color, vibrance, and clarity of your images-easily learning to create both quality and dynamic images.
Working with both ends of the digital spectrum-the digital camera AND digital imaging software-lays the foundation for operating with comfort and confidence in the digital environment—skills that are necessary as you move towards making your personal digital photography experience more and more fulfilling.
