More and more professional photographers are throwing out their film cameras to capture their images on digital formats. Find out why and how you can join them in taking advantage of advanced digital techniques to take your photography to a new level both within the camera and on to your computer.

This course is designed for those who have got to grips with the basics already and now want to step up their game. Essentially photography is still photography but there are technical differences and new demands placed upon the photographer when he/she switches from film to files.

Progress from Jpegs to raw files, learn how to process your chosen images and manage your work flow and most importantly how your digital camera can free you to express yourself creatively and visually.

This course is given by a former stalwart of film who has been seduced by the possibilities that digital can bring to the working process and ultimately the final image. Please note this course is not all technical, assignments will be image-making led.

What you will need:

• A digital SLR camera or digital back for your film camera
• A variety of lenses from wide-angle to telephoto if you have them; a single “standard” (i.e. 50mm) lens will serve you well, too
• A computer with image-processing software (e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Apple Aperture, etc.)
• A passion for pictures
