Yes! Finally! A Kim Winey Photography camera class in Lancaster County!
Manual Settings-Super Simplified is a non-intimidating time of learning how to adjust your camera's settings to create consistent, properly exposed photos. Visual aids & inspiring images will be used to explain the three parts of the exposure triangle ~ ISO, aperture and shutter speed.
To give everyone even more options, this year, I have broken my "Manual Settings Simplified" class into two segments. I highly, highly recommend that you opt for both sessions, but if shortness of time or shortness of funds is a factor, you now have the option of fast-tracking and attending session 1 only if that suits you.
Session 1 ~ $150 {6:00pm - 7:30pm}
Manual Settings - Super Simplified!
Join me for a non-intimidating time of learning how to adjust your camera's settings to create consistent, properly exposed photos. Visual aids & inspiring images will be used to explain the three parts of the exposure triangle ~ ISO, aperture and shutter speed.
During session 1 a small amount of time will be given to change the settings on your own camera & observe the results of those changes. If time permits we will also have Q & A at the end of session 1.
Session 2 ~ $150 {7:30pm-9:00pm}
Manual Settings - Super Simplified Part 2!
Now that the basics of the exposure triangle have been covered we will touch on a few more important camera details, then time permitting, jump right into additional hands-on practice time to more fully explore and understand how shooting in manual mode works.
Sessions 1 & 2 combined in one day ~ $250 *A $50 savings* {6:00pm-9:00pm}

General Bootcamp Q & A~
Q: Should I bring a camera and if so, what kind?
A: Yes, please bring your digital camera! Part of getting a good grasp on Manual Settings is learning where the dials and buttons are on YOUR particular camera. You can bring a point and shoot or a DSLR, so long as there is a Manual Mode option. It will appear as an "M", on your mode dial. If you are unsure about your particular camera, please feel free to give me a call and we'll figure it out, together! {717-689-3277}
Q: How should I prepare my camera?
A: You should have your battery fully charged, with a back up on hand, if possible. Please bring a memory card or two, with LOTS of space to take pictures. *If you can empty your card before the class, that would be fabulous! Also, mental preparedness is key to any new adventure. Please take a moment to warn your auto-setting that you will no longer be needing its services.
Q: Do I need to bring anything else?
A: Yes. Please bring your camera's manual. You know... the little book that came with your camera, that you glanced at, got overwhelmed with and so now you're taking my class to decipher it. Yes... that's the one. For bonus points, mark the sections that explain how to change your ISO, aperture & shutter speed. This may save us a lot of time, in class. If, like me, you threw out your English version and only retained the Spanish copy, you can a) download the info from the internet or b) don't worry about it and we'll figure it out, in class.
Q: What should I wear and are boots required?
A: Dress comfortably! I myself, will be wearing my work clothes. No, not my striped, pink PJ's, though that is tempting... jeans and a nice top. Boots are recommended in some locations, however they are not necessary in the Lancaster County spot.
Q: Will there be drinks or snacks at the Bootcamp?
A: I can't really go more than 2 hours without food, so yes. For sure. Yes. Hot coffee & tea, a cold beverage, and chocolate will all be provided, at the very least. :)

Looking forward to another great year of knowledge sharing and growth for our photo-loving community!
Warmly,
Kim Winey aka Miss Kimmi
