Getting started with photography

Wildlife and adventure photography

If you're new to photography (and I'm talking about DSLR and Mirrorless photography primarily), the equipment and settings can be quite daunting. So where to start?
In this podcast I'll take you through what I believe to be the most important considerations for your kit; camera body and lenses, and how to quickly get on top of the 'techy' part.
What is the "exposure triangle" and what do you need to know, and why?
I'll talk you through what you need to know about 'Aperture', 'Shutter Speed', and 'ISO' and how each one impacts your final photograph.
As always, I recommend that you take a training course if you can. A face to face course is likely to get you the best results, if one is available. If you don't have that option, check out on line courses to see if there's one for you. Make sure that:

• You like the teaching style
• There is a practical aspect where you can apply the theory
• There is a money back guarantee if that particular course isn't for you

You can check out my courses below.
