Sept 21 Class...

Thanks to all those who attended our class on Sunday. Hope each of you got something out of it. Knowing how ISO, Aperture and the Shutter speed relate to each other is crucial in becoming a better photographer. It looks like Oct 5th will be our Group Shoot date. I hope each of you can make it to both the class in the morning and our shoot in the afternoon. I challenge each of you to read your manual and become familiar with your menu settings and buttons on your camera before the next class and group shoot. You will need them. I will let you all know the details as time nears. I hope to have someone there we can shoot and another photographer to assist. If you have any questions you can't find in your manual, please contact me and we will figure it out.

Thanks everyone.

Bob
