Beginning Digital Photography

Easy Digital Photography Classes!

Mastering your camera can be a long hard slog or it can be a fun and perhaps a profitable stroll. Everything depends upon how you learn to do the shot. Digital photography classes provide the answer that almost all people are searching for.

Here is the issue…

Nearly all of us get a brand new camera - we open the box - read simply enough in the manual to learn to turn it on and we start shooting away!

The problem being, that without any formalized, systemetized education, we customarily wind up just putting the camera on its automated settings and thinking that's "ok!"

It's not ok!

True the camera on its fundamental programmed settings can perform a useable job in trouble-free, basic situations, but there is a whole new, creative world out there that we're missing!

To get past the snapshot point - where we view our snapshot once and then "file it away" never to be seen again - to creating shots that get people to say "WOW"… We absolutely must take the camera off automatic and begin controlling the darned thing.

That's when we commence our trial and error, random strategy of trying to figure out all the varied knobs, dials and buttons. Some we'll learn use, some we are going to get a completely WRONG understanding of, and other options we won't ever even know exist.

The bad news is…

Using this trial and error tactic, we end up with gaping holes in our photo training. It's not that we are not smart enough to understand, it really is that we just do not know enough of what creative opportunities are workable to ask the correct questions.

There IS an easy resolution…

Take a formal course. Therefore, the materials are presented in a systematic logical manner which will plug many of the holes in out random education. It's surprisingly effortless and speedy!

We don't have to enroll within a degree program, there are tons of cheap internet programs where we can get the needed information on our own schedules and at our own pace.

When searching for a web based course, don't shy away from a course that starts in the very basic beginnings. It's startling how few of us truly understand the basics.

Two areas to avoid in the beginning…

Don't bother using the free "101 tips" form of information. That tends to be just more of a haphazard training we are trying to avoid. AFTER you finish your systematic digital photography classes, THEN is the perfect time for 101 tips sort of thing.

Avoid courses that cost many hundreds dollars…

There are many - top notch - courses that cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. For the most part, they are far too involved for what the majority of us need. You can get into one of those if you happen to later decide you need to turn pro or really get into advanced techniques.

Like Goldilocks, you can also find online digital photography classes which are "perfect for you!"
