Photography Masterclass: Your Complete Guide to Photography
Very fundamental knowledge of taking photograph. This course is more like a introduction and it’s suit for beginners. It’s not suit for those masters but the tips are good.
Altho there were sections to this course and topics covered, too many of them were not specific enough to be of any value. For example when going through the menu button on DLSR cameras, Sam mostly said look at your own manual if you want to know what to do. Some of there information was dated and did not include the latest. I was disappointed with this class.
I started this course with a DSLR camera I knew nothing about. Our old camera died and I asked my wife to pick up a new camera. I figured something about 300 dollars. She came back with a Canon EOS DSLR with a couple extra lenses. I spent the first two years just using auto mode, cuz it was all alien to me. I understand it perfectly now, and it has sparked a joy of photography in me. This class was wonderful. Covered everything I could ask for. How the DSLR works, manual mode, tone, exposure, depth of field, editing. You name it. It’s very comprehensive. The instructors do a really great job. My only regret is that I didn’t take it earlier.
This course has everything that you need to learn photography and help you to take those great pictures that you always dreamt of.
