WEEKEND WORKSHOP Point-n-Shoot: More Than Meets the Eye

with Jeff Kida
April 9-10, 2010
Cost: $135


© Nikki KimbelWe think point and shoot cameras have gotten a bad rap in the photography world. So we致e decided to roll up our sleeves and show those digital SLR snobs we can compete at practically every level!

Take our class and we値l demystify the icons and menus that seem to have replaced shutter speeds and f-stops. We値l show you that histogram is not a secret code word for genealogy and that white balance can be a very powerful tool and therefore a good thing to know. We will delve into tripods, self-timers and fill flash.

Since this is now photography without film, we値l discuss the best way to capture your images when shooting, RAW, tiff or jpeg and then how to best archive them in your computer. We値l spend one evening together in the classroom and make a seamless transition to field work early the next morning at the Desert Botanical Garden. Naturally we値l work on light and composition.

We値l adjourn for a well-earned lunch at the garden, look at work and reinforce your new found photographic techniques. This one is a lot of fun, it痴 educational and very low on the stress meter.
