Making the Most of Your Digital Camera

What’s the big idea? A new digital camera won’t make you a great photographer, photography is an art and you may or may not be an artist, yet! But digital cameras do make it easier to get good results since you can see your results straightaway and because it doesn’t cost any more to take 1, 10 or even 100 pictures you can afford to keep going until you take the picture you want. They make new things possible too, especially new ways to share pictures, and this means you can get pictures to the people you want to see them. To unlock all this great stuff you really do need access to a PC and that’s usually where things start to get tricky. The aim of these course notes is to help you become confident with digital imaging in general and aware of the advantages and pitfalls of using a PC to help get the results you hoped for when you first bought your camera.
