What every beginner needs to know

  1. setting the exposure using the histogram: the camera’s LCD screen might be a good way to tell if what you’re doing is right, but it’s not entirely reliable in conditions like harsh sunlight. The best way to tell if your exposure is correct is by consulting the histogram.
  2. RAW: Shooting in RAW format will give you access to the full capabilities of your camera.
  3. Selecting focus points manually: learning to change the AF points manually is a useful skill. It will improve focusing accuracy and reduce chances of missing important shots.
  4. Learn all AF modes: Most cameras come with different autofocus modes like One-shot AF, Servo AF and AI Autofocus. All of these modes have different uses, depending on subject and situation.
  5. Aperture priority: having complete control over aperture means control over depth of field. This is a great setting for shooting portraits with a blurred background.
  6. Shutter priority: gives you complete control over shutter speed while making all the other settings automatically, according to the selected value. This is a great setting for situations where you don’t want the shutter speed to go over or under a specific value.
  7. control motion blur: Motion blur often comes from using a shutter speed that is too slow for holding the camera in your hands. Every photographer has a maximum low speed they can use.
  8. manual white balance: All digital cameras have a few white balance presets.While they can do a fairly decent job, it is recommend learning to set white balance manually, according to each lighting situation.
  9. drive modes: The first mode allows you to shoot one frame at a time. It great for studio work or when shooting anything you have complete control over. CL is great for portraits when you have an expressive model and don’t want to miss any interesting faces. CH is the shooting mode for sports, wildlife and anything that moves fast.
  10. ISO: Lower values are great when there is plenty of light to work with. Higher ISO values are needed for working in low light.
  11. Auto ISO: auto ISO will help you when shooting hand held. It will increase or decrease the value in order to allow you to shoot with a shutter speed fast enough for hand held operation.
  12. exposure compensation: It is a +/- scale that will tell your camera to increase or decrease exposure, depending on your needs. It works for all semi-automatic modes (P, Av, TV) and will influence exposure in increments.
  13. manual exposure: full manual control

This photographers photos really caught my eye. Their timing for the photos seems perfect, especially with the first photo. They capured and really nice moment between 2 people. I also like it because not only did they get a nice moment, they also got the beautiful veiw in the back. Everything about that picture I enjoy. The second photo also is nice to me. It really captured the everyday life of these two children. It doesn’t feel like a rare moment when I see the photo. It feels like something I can see the kids doing again. Over all this photographer is very good at candid photos.

Intro to stobe lights

  1. Professional studio light sources generally fall into one of two categories: you can get a kit with a flash head and a power pack, or you can get a monolight kit.
  2. The most common types of light modifers are umbrellas and softboxes.
  3. Stands and grips are used to support your light sources, strobes, and even light modifiers or backdrops.
  4. Lighting equipment can be very expensive, so make sure you get the tools that are right for you
  5. Reflecting umbrellas produce a diffused and soft light due to the larger size of the reflecting surface
  6.  Silver-lined umbrellas are the most efficient and can focus light more  narrowly than the other types.
  7. White umbrellas offer a wider spread of reflected light, and gold umbrellas produce a warm tone.
  8. If you’re shooting outdoors or with complicated modifier setups, you are going to need a lot of power to overcome the sun or the light loss caused by the modifiers
  9. A head and power pack kit consists of the flash head and a small power pack that acts as the generator that supplies energy to the flash head
  10. Monolights, on the other hand, are compact substitutes for a power pack/flash head combinations. Their size limits their power, but they are often desired for their portability.
