Work on these forms in class.

1) Search the web for an in-depth review of your camera - start with dp review for the best reviews, if you can't find your camera there, search around for a technical review. (you will copy the web link into the next form- so don't lose it)

2 Find the information and fill in this camera equipment form with information about your camera equipment.

Download a copy (PDF) of your camera manual and save it for further reference.

3 Look over the guide to taking better photographs to get some ideas for the warmup exercise shoot

4 Check the workflow Shoot a variety of test photos with your camera- Some in classroom, Some in Studio, Some outside (about a dozen) - upload your images to the computer

5 Warmup exercise- you will use your camera in program or automatic mode (without flash) to capture images under a variety of lighting.
Subject matter is your choice but you should get creative and shoot a lot. We will examine and share these images next week.
