Photography course

I have been on a course in Photography with Stella Nova Studio.  Veryyy interesting so there's definitely more to photography than just point and shoot and I learnt NEVER set you camera to the AUTO setting cos apparently that is the idiot mode, HAHAHA.  your camera, most often can handle photos at Program and the Time value and Aperture value is pre-set but in real low light you will have to change your ISO to at least 800 - 1600 but also noting that there is a trade off since at this high ISO your photo will have large grain or photo noise. In natural and standard conditions where the day is bright and sunny an ISO of 100 - 200 will do.  To shoot action pics like sport - you will need a faster shutter speed to capture the caught in action effect, well depending on what you are after......  I am going to practice lots
