Photography: Focus on Profit--Competitive Pricing Competitive Pricing © 2002 Tom Zimberoff Excerpt | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | ||> Next Page If You’ve got a niche, scratch it!

Silverlight photography tutorials. Free photography tutorials and resources. This series of tutorials, which is constantly expanding, is provided as an introduction to photographic techniques. It may not turn you into a brilliant photographer but hopefully it will help improve your photography by teaching you a bit about some of the theory behind photography. Some of the tutorials will be useful no matter what type of camera you are using , however, the tutorials are geared towards 35mm/digital SLR cameras with the ability to be operated manually, at least to some degree. By manual operation I mean that you should be able to physically focus the camera, set the aperture and set the shutter speed. If you have the manual for your camera now would be a good time to read through it. I would like these tutorials to be useful and not too dull so I am keen to hear from you if you are using them.
