An intensive one-day workshop not for the faint-of-heart.

We will explore the vast and often elusive techniques that make these multi-use
cameras the choice for cinematographers, indie-filmmakers, corporate, event and wedding photographers.

From lenses-to-editing, this one-day primer will address that and everything else in-between.

Topics will include:
Lenses, sound recording, ISO, depth-of-field, follow-focus, environmental white-balance, f-stops, frame rates, camera set-up, CF cards, external monitoring, post-production, color-correction, third-party accessories and lighting for still and video.
