I'm signing up for photography classes tomorrow, but I'm unsure of which one I should take, both are for the beginner.
#1 - Digital Photography - This course will engage various topics ranging from exposure to pre-visualization. Class discussion will focus on specifics of camera mechanics to create personally satisfying images.
#2 - Advanced Topics in Digital Photography (Exposure) - Ready to learn the relationship between shutter speed and aperture? This workshop style forum will provide the capacity to effectively create specific renderings of shadows, highlights and colour saturation.
I'm unsure of which one to sign up for. I've read my the manual that came with my camera from front to back at least twice, I think I have an understanding of how my camera works. I own and am reading "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson - I believe that I'm "getting it". I'm shooting about 75% of my images in manual (M). I'm thinking that class #2 might be more worth my time since it's more a workshop style. Thoughts?
It's not about the money as both classes are under $200, I just don't want to find myself sitting in a class and thinking that I either under estimated myself or I got myself in over my head and feel lost.[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Bryan-Peterson/e/B000APQPTU/ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1282508106&sr=8-1"][/ame]
