A free, interactive photography course: photographic language, exposure and the black-and-white darkroom.
A photography course in two units: photographic language and the taking of the image — the frame, point of view, composition, aperture, shutter and sensitivity, lenses and depth of field, cameras, exposure and metering, digital capture and editing a sequence; and the black-and-white analogue laboratory — the latent image, film and its curve, developing, the Zone System, contrast control, the enlarger and printing, and hybrid workflows.

Diesen Kurs kostenlos startenPhotography I teaches how a photograph is made, from the frame to the print. Lessons are short and followed by practice questions with instant feedback — many of them interactive, like setting an exposure yourself.
The first unit covers the frame, point of view and composition, aperture, shutter speed and sensitivity, lenses, field of view and depth of field, types of camera, exposure and metering, the digital capture chain, selecting and sequencing images, and the beginnings of photography. The second unit is the black-and-white darkroom: the latent image, film and the characteristic curve, developing the negative, the Zone System, contrast control, the enlarger, paper grades and multigrade filtration, dodging and burning, archival processing and hybrid workflows.
