Learn all about light and color and how to use them creatively. Understand how they change throughout the day and seasons, how they’re affected by the weather, and how light’s direction and quality affects highlights and shadows.

See how zoom, wide-angle, normal, telephoto, and macro mode affects your images. See how to creatively use an external flash both indoors and out and in good light and bad and how to use studio lighting for product shots and portraits. Explore special techniques such as fill and slow sync flash. See how to shoot panoramas, store your own settings, control image qualities such as tone, sharpness and hue, shoot in black & white, use custom functions and other settings, and enter a print order. Finally, learn how to care for your camera and clean dust from the sensor so you don’t get black spots on your images.
