Course Overview

About this Course:

'This is a fantastic course filled with so much useful information. I am a big fan of Bernie's and he sure came through with this course. You won't be disappointed.' - Diane

Today's DSLR and Mirrorless cameras are fantastic aren't they?

The great thing is they have an enormous number of features and settings

The problem is they have an enormous number of features and settings!!

And it is a problem because although there are some real hidden gems amongst all those features they can seem confusing or intimidating and so a lot of photographers simply ignore or shy away from them (you know who you are!!)

This course aimed at beginner and intermediate photographers covers DSLR and Mirrorless basic settings but also explains your camera's more advanced features and settings. You probably already know about some of these settings but not entirely sure how and when to use them and there may even be some that you're not even aware of!
