In this class, I will break down all the different camera settings and I will go through in detail about all the terminology such as shutter speed, frame rates per second, ISO, Aperture, etc with real-life examples. Most of the time I will be filming outdoors and will take you to all different scenarios so that you can learn with me about how to apply different settings in your camera to film at different times of the day. And by the end of this class, you will know all about your camera gear and you will be confident enough to film in manual settings and get the most out of your camera. You would exactly know how to play with shutter speed, frame rates per second, ISO and aperture to get the best video output possible from your camera. To make it simple, I have broken down this class into various different segments. An Introduction to video cameras - Lesson 4-8 will consist of everything you need to know while buying your first video camera.
