Manual Mode and Raw Files

Debunking the Manual Mode Myth

Have you heard Manual Mode and shooting RAW files is “the only way to learn your camera & get great shots”?

So not true!

Manual mode & speed don’t work well together. We can’t exactly ask firefighters to put that hot spot out one more time because we missed it! We (professional news shooters with 20 yrs experience and tons of awards) only use Manual mode when it’s practical to do so – for situations like parties indoors – with a “set & forget” setting that’s so easy it’s ridiculous!

Have more fun shooting, and get better shots by paying attention to what’s in the lens – not constantly trying to adjust for manual exposure.

We have TONS of tricks up our sleeves – GET THE SHOT! We’ll share how – group classes & private lessons! 

Photography does NOT have to be THAT hard! Malinda’s a practical news shooter, not a PHD. This class is filled with EASY pro tips you can understand & start using the SAME DAY to make better images.
