Day 4 Review - Camera & Photos

Some hints for today, but return later for more information.

Camera and Photos, what a fun topic.

Read the Camera and Photos chapters in the free iPad User Guide in Books. 

Camera Modes on your iOS devices. 

Edit Photos on your iPad.

Watch for other RenSoc seminars on iOS topics.

Other sources to soothe your creative muse include:
  • Today at Apple - free workshops and studio sessions. Sign up for a "photo walk" and enjoy the experience. There are two Apple Stores in our area, Arden Fair and Roseville Galleria. Check both locations for sessions and plan your adventure day. Invite a friend or two to join you!
  • MacNexus is the local "Apple Technology User Group" with morning workshops and triage on the 1st Saturday of the month at St. Marks United Methodist Church near Country Club Mall.  Monthly meetings at 7-9 pm are at the Sacramento Board of Realtors Offices on the 4th Wednesday. Come to one workshop or one meeting to check out this group. Annual membership is $40. The "tech support" and friendships you get with MacNex-ians is well worth this membership fee. The Saturday workshops often include Camera/Photos session.
  •  Why not make a recurring date with friends to practice using your iPad skills. Sharing with others reinforces your skills and puts you in the mode to absorb new information.

Advice: Shoot with the sun at your back!

"HDR" is High Dynamic Range" where the camera takes 3 exposures to combine into 1 photo. The 3 exposures are under-exposed, normal exposure and over-exposed. HDR is good for landscapes but not for action (because of taking 3 exposures).
