Aperture priority
Shutter priority
ISO
Exposure compensation
Introduction to Photoshop Skills

HOW WILL I BE ASSESSED?
There is no formal assessment on this course but you will be encouraged by the tutor to keep a portfolio of handouts, notes and examples of your work to show the progress you have made.
WHAT CAN I DO NEXT?
You could simply use the new techniques you have learnt by taking clearer pictures of a higher quality in your daily life or you may wish to pursue your interest of photography on a higher level course. You will be able to discuss this further with your tutor.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO KNOW?
You will need to bring along your own digital camera (with a charged battery), the camera manual, a pen, paper, and a simple folder to each lesson. You may also be required to print some of your pictures to include in your portfolio.
