12:00 Digital Photography
We are fortunate to have a nice set of Canon T3i digital cameras. This is a dependable camera for shooting automatic and manual modes including video. Today I’m going to distribute your own SD card. This will be your SD card for the year – don’t lose it. Place in your art cup.
You will each receive a camera to use. Inside the bag you’ll find two lenses. Batteries will be placed in the camera each day and charged at the end of the day. We’ll practice assembling and disassembling the camera. It is your responsibility to take good care of your assigned camera. Remember your camera number.
