Digital Photography Part 0 The administrative stuff
The basics • This is a lecture. Attendance is optional. (But if you are not interested, why did you take it?) • There will be a written exam at the end. Oral exam on demand. • Previous knowledge is not assumed. • Having a camera to try out things for yourself helps. • I’ll make the slides available as we go along. • There are excellent books and online resources available on the topic. • If you have questions during the lecture, ask.
