INTRODUCTION:
Have you recently purchased an expensive camera after enjoying iPhone photography for awhile? Maybe someone praised your photos and suggested you try a more sophisticated camera. Often, the salesperson or the trainer from the complimentary course included with your camera purchase will teach you to use semi-auto or full auto modes. While these modes are simple and fuss-free, they don’t allow you to fully utilize your camera’s capabilities, and they miss out on much of the fun in photography. Using these modes is almost no different from shooting with your mobile phone, and you might have noticed your results are worse than before. This is because you’re not operating the camera the right way—the manual way. What you need is a Beginner Photography Course to unlock your camera’s potential and elevate your photography skills.
