Malinda’s Intermediate class. For folks who know the basics and want to go to the next step. DSLR2 is our most popular class and fills quickly! Here’s What You’ll Learn:

• More “technical” than Digital 101 class – more math & fractions. We get into Aperture & shutter speed.
• TIPS including Holding Your Camera – CRITICAL to making great photos, especially in low light
• ZOOM: Wide Angle vs. Telephoto. When & how to use them for best results. Lots of Info on Lenses.
• SETTINGS: Aperture (f-stop), Shutter Speed, & ISO – the equation to great images!
• MODES: Why using Program, A or Av, S or TV, and M is way better than Auto mode.
• COMPOSITION: Tips & Tricks for dynamic photos
• FLASH: When & how to use Force Flash and when to turn it off
• LIGHTING & EXPOSURE: taking control, overcoming problems, compensating for troublesome lighting.
• Plus: The critical “magic” button that few know about and why it’s so cool.
• SITUATIONS: everyday tips for sports, kids, flowers, groups, weddings & events, travel,…
• IMAGE FORMATS: absolutely necessary info on photo formats and how to save your precious images so you don’t accidentally destroy them!
• and Much MORE! The art center offers excellent indoor & outdoor shooting locations.
• If you’d rather not get into the “technical” stuff of Aperture & shutter speed, check out the Digital Photo 101 class – it’s not nearly as basic as you may think.
• Limited to 16. Register early! This class fills fast.
• $125 for 8 hours of class & practice time.

Now that I’ve taken this class, I do feel I have a better understanding of taking pictures the best way I can. I can’t believe how much is on my camera and I’ve had it for 6 years. Tessa
