First Camera Lesson

This was our first lesson where we actually got to use and work with the cameras. It was really to get the basics of the camera, how it works and how to install it before use. We started by making sure the tripod was the right height. Afterwards we would check that the camera is straight by making sure that the bubble was in the middle of the spirit level and locking it in that position. To put the battery in, we would put it in the back of the camera in the hole and pushing it down until we heard a click, and the push a button to make It pop out again. Next step was to check the white balance by putting a piece of white paper in front of the lens and pushing down a button until it installed it. To make sure that you get a clear and not blurry shot we would zoom in on an object in the shot focus on it and then zoom out to the preferred shot.
