What camera should I buy? Is Canon better than Nikon? What about Sony? …Pentax? …Olympus? As if brand was easy to choose, we have to pick the model. Canon offers DSLR from $700 to about $12K. Well, if they are the same brand why the difference in price? In one word: Features.
On our seventh meeting we get to review and critique our ‘ISO Assignment’ and get to see if we have begun noticing some ‘qualities’ or ‘limitations’ of our cameras. We get to compare Camera Models and I get to show-and-tell about my main camera, backup and past models. Hmmm, I guess I’ve been around

I remember ordering a Light Meter because I couldn’t figure out what the proper exposure was. By the time the package was delivered I had ‘discovered’ my camera came with a built-in light meter and also included Exposure Compensation. On our eighth session we get to discuss the Trinity of Light and how the harmony among ISO, F-Stop and Shutter Speed can be manipulated to free our creativity and convey meaning to an image.
