Camera Work, An Introduction


This is a very similar camera we will be using to shoot our thriller movies with the time comes.
Insert the battery in the battery slot which is located in the back of the camera. If you want to take out the battery, push the eject button which can be found on top of the battery slot.


 Insert the battery in the battery slot which is located in the back of the camera. If you want to take out the battery, push the eject button which can be found on top of the battery slot.

  Insert the memory card into the memory slot to save your clips so you can send it to the computer. The memory card slot can be found at the left hand side of the camera, bottom of the mini screen.
Slot the camera on top of the tripod until you hear a click, when you hear the click, that's when the camera is locked in. If you want to release the camera from the tripod, push the eject button then slide it out. Tripod would be useful for panning and still filming.

 The lesson today was based on how to use and function the camera. we were taught all the functions and different switches within the camera itself, and also we were taught how to hold and use the camera, also we were taught how to focus the camera and how to postion our shots while using the camera. i had used a camera similar to this when i was doing gcse media but it wasn't as advance and expensive as this camera. We breifly went over lighting and learnt about camera saftey due to it was for our benefit because the camera's are really expensive.
