Digital Camera Class Dec. 30, 2008

Six people attended the Digital Camera Class at the Swift Current Public Library. We were able to show them the basic features of the camera and also show them some of the more advanced features. Everyone walked away having learned something. The students learned about using the macro feature on the camera for taking pictures really close. They learned how to use the timer on the camera. They learned about the different settings on the camera, like portrait, landscape and night mode. They also were shown how to take a video using the digital camera.

We showed them how to put their pictures onto the computer.

It was an enjoyable class of learning.
