DIGITAL SLR BASICS - TAKING BETTER PICTURES

LIMITED SPECIAL OFFER $50 for a 3-Hour Professional Photography Workshop with Parrish Lewis VALUE $125 - DISCOUNT $75 OFF - LIMITED TIME OFFER! Digital SLR Beginners course provides a comprehensive introduction into using your DSLR camera in the creative modes - i.e. get it off auto-everything and take control. Unfortunately, most camera manufacturers' user guides are not great at helping you use your camera effectively. They are fine as reference material - e.g. if you cannot remember how to change a specific setting or what a particular symbol means - but they don't really help you understand which setting you should be using and why. This is where our DSLR Beginners Course helps; we will not only help you understand the features of your camera but also provide you with simple strategies to decide the appropriate settings when you are out there shooting.

  • When: (5) Saturdays | April 28, May 5, May 26, June 2, June 16 | Time: 10:00am - 1:00pm
  • Where: PLP STUDIOS | 319 N. Western Ave., Rear Unit | Chicago, IL 60612
