I call it the 'Know The Basics' photography workshop, but it's also known as 'Learn To Control Your Camera' when it's run at RHS Garden Hyde Hall.

• Maximum of 10 participants.

• Classroom and practical outdoor session.

• Group and individual tuition.

• Everything you need to control your camera.

• Build confidence.

• Just £80 per person.

This is the best workshop you can attend in Essex to learn how to take control of your camera, and get an understanding of what all the dials, buttons and settings really mean.

This is mainly aimed at digital cameras of all types (SLR, compact system, bridge or compacts), but even if you use film, you will gain extra knowledge about your camera.

We will look at aperture, shutter speed, ISO, exposure compensation, white balance, focal length, and more during an illustrated morning classroom session. Then we head outside in the afternoon for some practical photography to put into practice everything we discussed in the morning. All participants will have the benefit of some one-to-one tuition.
