Going on a big trip with your new camera? Do this Safari before you go! You love your new camera BUT, out of fear of doing the wrong thing, you always keep it on a nice, safe "Auto" or "P" and let the camera do the thinking. Or, you put it on "M" because you see the pros doing that and STILL your pictures come out poorly exposed! You are depressed! You are intimidated by the letters "A","S","M", or "ASM", or "Av" and "Tv". As a result, you only use $100 worth of the $500 worth of features on your camera! Does this sound familiar? You are not alone. Help is now on the way from a professional architectural photographer who has made every F-stop mistake in the book, E. David Luria, director of the Washington Photo Safari! This special photo Safari will concentrate on understanding WHY you would want to choose "Shutter Priority" or "Aperture Priority" or the "Portrait" setting, or the "Landscape" setting or the "Sports" setting or even the "P" setting for your film or digital camera, whether it is an SLR or a simple point and shoot or "prosumer" digital/film camera. You will learn how YOUnot the cameracan control the final image.
Our venue for this safari is the FDR Memorial, with its statuary and waterfalls providing excellent opportunities to experiment with narrow and wide depth of field, slow and fast shutter priorities, and the effect of wide angle, normal, and telephoto lenses on depth of field.
Bring your camera, tripod, and ALL your lenses for this very helpful primer on the proper use of your camera.
