If you have never held a camera, don’t know what all the buttons and dials do, or just want to make sure you understand how it all works, this class is for you. We will cover all the important concepts and dive into the details of how to get pictures that will thrill you. We will also cover photographic equipment choices and how to select the best camera setup for your budget and photographic goals. This class is not specific to bird photography but we will set the stage for understanding how to configure your camera for birding.
About the Instructor:
Dave Read has been a wildlife photographer for over 25 years, both underwater and above ground. He is an avid birder and is excited to work with new birders to start them on the road toward enjoying and identifying the birds they see.
