Emerging photographers can take a course offered by one of the world’s leading universities to learn how to use a camera.
While high-level education remains expensive and mostly elitist, the growth of new technologies makes online courses and programmes more popular. Universities offers them for free or for an affordable price both on their own websites and online education platforms, such as Coursera or Alison.
Harvard University’s photography course is now available online absolutely for free. However, you need to pay some money if you want to get Harvard’s certificate. The course consists of 13 modules covering a wide range of topics. Students will learn how digital cameras and their sensors work, how to use light and exposure and read histograms. An essential part of the course is software tools for photographers. According to Alison, an average student completes the programme in 10-15 hours.
Considering the growing popularity of Instagram, the course will be useful for those who want to better understand digital photography and learn how to take and process photos to receive high-quality works.
