Photography Class: Master Your Camera Controls - San Pedro Point Fermin Lighthouse & Korean Bell
This photography class at Point Fermin Lighthouse and Korean Bell of Friendship finally makes camera settings make sense.
Instead of guessing what ISO or shutter speed does, you’ll get hands-on guidance while capturing ocean views, dramatic cliffs and architectural details. The instructor walks you through aperture for depth of field, shutter speed for motion blur and ISO for balancing light without sacrificing quality. You’ll also explore white balance, focus modes and when to move beyond auto. It’s relaxed, interactive and full of “aha” moments. By the end, you’ll understand your camera and shoot with confidence for travel, friends and everyday moments.

Richard patiently walked us through the steps and gave great instruction. I finally know how to navigate my camera that I've been using on auto for ten years. I'd definitely recommend this course to others
