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)
(3)
Find the information and fill in this form with information about your
camera equipment

Use the next form to explore photographers at the Masters-of-Photography
site. Take your time to look through and find images that capture your
attention. The form asks you to tell me about a photographers work that
you like AND also a photographer you don't like.
Consider the
body of work that the photographer has done- don't single out an image
that doesn't represent the overall style of the artist.

the warmup exercise shoot

a lot. We will examine and share these images next week.
