Day 1 Recording - success

Our meeting was successfully recorded. I will review, make minor edits and then try posting to YouTube. The presentation might need to be broken into four segments. On our website the general contents will be noted with appropriate time references. 

We are off to a good start! 

Camera Introduction portion of class activity is now posted on YouTube, 24 minutes. Since this is the last segment of the class, look for added notations for Elapsed time to match your personal notes. 

The editing experience has given me ideas for changing the recording options for our last two classes: 1) Record in segments that end after question periods, 2) pre-record slide segments for easier editing and posting...

Free - Sac Public Library Online Learning

There are many online classes available through our public library. 

Why take our class instead of an online class? We will interact with you! This website can be a follow-up resource after class. But the more you engage with your iPhone Camera and Photos apps the more you will appreciate these online classes/coaches.

Photo Walk

Looking for parks around the Sacramento area, something with a short commute. 

The date is fixed - Wednesday February 23rd, 1 to 3 pm. Watch for email to confirm your assigned location. Depending on enrollment (aka demand), there is a possibility we will have two groups at each location, the first from 1:00 to 1:45 pm and the second from 2:00 to 2:45 pm. 

Our class is over enrolled! A limited number of participants will be invited to attend in-person sessions. Others may be out-of-town and arrange their own photo walk will suggestions from this website. We will have a Zoom meeting for others desiring more coaching and feedback with camera modes. 

Rain will change our location but not the date.

Sharing and Saving Photos

Chances are that you are keeping emails because there are attached photos. Another safe bet is that the Messages app has lots of photos too. 

We will look at saving the photos shared with you. Then we will review how you can share photos with friends and family.
