Now that you've mastered the basics of your DSLR camera it's time to take your photography skills to the next level without wasting any time! This course was designed as a follow-up intermediate digital photography course to another Udemy course of mine called Digital Photography for Beginners with DSLR cameras, but anyone with a sound basic photographic knowledge and a DSLR camera will find value in this course. Learn how to turn good photographs into great photographs! Learn what to consider when you upgrade your camera gear. Understand how different camera settings work together to ensure perfect exposures. See the value of a hot shoe flash, which can be used both on the camera or remotely. Push your creative limits by photographing everything from sun stars to the Milky Way. Get introduced to Lightroom - the best photography software on the market!Photographers never stop learning… Switching over from Automatic Mode or Program Mode to Aperture or Shutter Priority is just the first step in becoming an excellent photographer. As a beginner, you would have been introduced to a lot of new settings, like ISO, exposure compensation, f-values amongst many others, but the key is to understand how these settings work together to give you perfect exposures. And that is one of the main goals of this course - to help you understand the relationship between the camera's most important settings. As your photography knowledge increases, so will the likelihood of you wanting to upgrade your entry-level camera gear, so this course discusses different photographic equipment, including camera bodies, lenses, teleconverters, filters, bags and accessories, as well as hot shoe flashes. Armed with the right gear and settings, the sky's the limit when it comes to creativity, and this course covers everything from moon and star photography to painting with light and HDR imaging. Last, but not least, you'll be introduced to every photographer's best friend: Adobe Lightroom Classic. It's the most powerful and user-friendly photography software out there and not only allows you to import, view and sort your photos, but also to edit them and export them for specific uses. Content and Overview This course is divided into five broad components: first we look at photographic equipment and what you can consider adding to your current setup; secondly we look at more advanced camera settings and especially the relationship between different settings and how they work together; thirdly we look at flash photography, focussing on hot shoe flashes, remote flash work and studio photography; next we look at a number of more advanced creative tips and techniques that will help you to take images that you've only ever dreamed of taking before; and lastly, we look at post-processing of your photos in Adobe Lightroom Classic. Lectures are short and concise (usually between 3 and 10 minutes long) and consist of either video clips (where I talk to you directly), screen casts (where I show you examples, diagrams or recorded workflow in Lightroom), or a combination of the two.
