Master Your Camera Controls - Photography Workshop

The DPA Instructors who lead these workshops are professional photographers

For each Master Your Camera Controls, a maximum of 5 attendees sit for 90 minutes with the instructor who will walk you through the manual camera controls of your specific camera. More than 5 attendees would be too chaotic if each person brings a different camera, with different controls.

After enrollment we procure the exact camera manufacturer and model in advance so the teacher is sure to point out any special features. This allows the photographer the option of overriding the automatic camera controls which sometimes disengage because the mechanics of the camera miscalculate the visual effect you are attempting.

The Master Your Camera Control session is always taught very close to the meeting spot of the Composition in the Field session. This makes it easy for those who want to enroll in both classes.

Venue Description:

You may be familiar with the Holden Arboretum just outside the city, 3,600 acres of lush flora and photogenic wildlife, all accessorized with winding walkways and tranquil waters. This picturesque setting is named after Robert Fairchild Holden, established in 1931, and is one the largest arboretums in the country. To cover the entire region it could easily take years, but thanks to DPA instructors in Cleveland, the expansive environs has been distilled down to 3 hours of great photo opportunities. Whether practicing shutter speed control of moving water, depth of field studies of colorful flowers or powerful compositions of landscapes in general, you’ll walk away with images worthy of any great photo portfolio.

Meeting Spot:

Meet at Beans Coffee Shop & Bistro – 121 Main Street, Chardon, Ohio 44024
