    Camera set up, settings and custom modes - Nicky Cope with follow on forum discussions / EAF portfolio discussion

    8:00 pmSt Ives Free Church

    Nicky will give a presentation on Camera Set up.  She will talk about camera settings and advance preparation that can help to maximise the chance of achieving the shots you would like.  She will discuss customised mode programming, customising buttons and will discuss her own particular choices of settings for different scenarios.  Although her genre of photography is primarily wildlife, this talk applies to all genres.  Preparation is key, whatever you are shooting!

    For the second half of the evening, we will have an open discussion on camera settings for different scenarios, and tips from other members.  Please have a think about this in advance and contribute to the discussion if you can.   In the final part of the evening Jonathan will also help us to get to grips with photo sizing and pixel count - a subject which is often not well understood.

    The art of cyanotypes is one of the oldest forms of photography using chemicals & the sun. Louisa will run this from her house/garden in St.Ives. As we need sunshine, if it’s raining it will be postponed. Louisa will provide a list of materials you will need to bring. Further details to follow.

    Louisa can accommodate 8 members, so this will be on a first come, first serve basis.
