It's all about the lens

Most of the images throughout the Gearshift sites were shot with a Nikon D80 but it was the assortment of lenses that was the main factor in why the pictures look nice. So my advice is to not worry so much about the camera body but about the lens you attach to it.

Photography Class

Today was the day that I conducted my first photography class! My student was Tina Anderson and we discussed some of the confusing settings that digital cameras have. We covered:

• Composition & Framing


• Lenses


• Aperture/F Stop Settings


• Shutter Speed


• ISO/Film Speed


• White Balance


• Lighting

I hope to have another class in a few months. To sign up, please register through the http://www.gearshiftphotography.com/ website.
