For awhile now I have had people ask me how their camera works and what settings they should use or that they got a camera and have not clue how to use it.  I had an overwhelming request for me to teach a class on basic use of SLR cameras.  Well, I have decided to embark on that endeavor.  Starting in late January I will be offering a class.  Depending on the response, I may offer them often.  This is a basic class that describes how to use the camera outside the green setting.  When I started using an SLR, I too was freaked out with those "other" settings. It wasn't until I started experimenting with them that I realized they were not that scary at all. Learning about lenses was a big eye opener.  See the the difference an entry lens can do and an intermediate or even a pro lens was amazing.  My new year in 2014 will be to show others how to make great pictures using the camera they own.
