If you're thinking about taking up photography with a digital camera, this is the class for you. Digital Boot Camp is a crash course that introduces students to the basic operation of a digital camera (DSLR). You don't need any previous experience whatsoever – it's a workshop meant for beginners. You don't even need to own a digital camera yet – we can provide you with one for the class.

During the first half of the class you'll learn how to operate a digital camera to get the results that you want. There will be lectures and short shooting assignments in the CPC neighborhood so you‘ll have the opportunity to become very familiar with camera operation. After lunch, you'll spend the rest of the day in our digital lab learning how to save your work and produce top quality prints from our top of the line printers.

If you do have a digital camera, please bring it with you along. You'll also want to bring the user manual if you have it. If you don't have the user manual, don't worry – we'll work with you so that you fully understand your camera. And if you haven't yet purchased a digital camera, we can provide one to you for the class as well as offer you advice on which cameras may be well suited to your photography needs.

Please bring a pen and notebook with you to class. There is a lot to get through in one day, so you'll want to take plenty of notes.

At the end of the day you will go home with a new understanding of digital photography and at least two 9" x 6" high quality prints that you shot and printed.
