Course Instructor Stephan Banakas

Do you ever wonder what all those buttons and dials on your camera do?  Or what all those words and phrases dealing with photography mean?  “Getting to Know Your Camera” is the place for you to start.  This 5-week course will start unlocking these mysteries and many more.  There will also be hands-on photo shooting and discussion of the many ways an image can be shot, as well as which technique might present your images as you imagined they might look.  So, pull down that camera, or even your cell phone; charge up the battery and join us.  You’ll begin to see your photos in a much different way.

The course will meet in the ICL classroom for five Tuesday sessions beginning February 4^th, from 1:00 – 3:00 with March 11^th set aside as a makeup day due to weather issues.
