Learn about the use of filters, tripod, cable release, self timer, how to calculate long exposures using a hand-held light meter, use of various light sources for fill and special effects. ISO, exposure and noise issues will be discussed as well as composition and special considerations when shooting after dark. Work will be shared during the third and the last class.
