Designed for photographers who have taken Photography 101 and 201 or who have sufficient understanding of basic aperture, shutter speed and ISO settings and who want to learn more about light and properly exposing for it.

In Photography 301, Brian will review and build upon his dashboard approach to setting up the camera so you are ready for the decisive moment.
