In this class, students will learn how to get the most out of their digital SLR (single lens reflex) cameras to take better reference photos. Students will learn some of the more advanced features of their SLR camera, including various program functions and settings, metering, and when to use flash and filters. The class will also explore how to improve a photograph with more interesting compositions, use of depth of field, and better cropping in the viewfinder. Finally, students will learn how to select the best lenses to capture their artistic vision. Students will have the opportunity to take pictures on location around the SAS property, where they will apply what they have learned to capture the images they want.
