Description

Digital Photography is tricky for beginners, hands-down. There’s so many things to think about and adjust, and the manual is completely overwhelming. These DSLR Camera Photography cheat sheets are the answer! No more wondering which f-stop is bigger, how to choose an ISO, or what shutter speed will make it sharp. These cards will teach you how to adjust your camera settings, so you can feel confident shooting in any situation. The cards are pocket-sized and printed on a thick, durable plastic. You can keep them clipped to your bag or purse, so they’re always available to refresh your memory on the go. All the content comes from Meg Calton, a photographer and educator at Snap Happy Mom. After teaching classes to thousands of moms, Meg created these cards based on common questions and concerns from beginners. This is the reference guide she wished existed when she got her first camera! No fluff, just solid, plain-English explanations and examples to give moms more confidence. And cute to boot. ;) DSLR CAMERA PHOTOGRAPHY CARDS - Exposure Triangle & Chart - Aperture & Depth of Field - Shutter Speed & Motion Blur - ISO & Grain - How To Shoot In Manual Mode - Troubleshooting - Light Meter & Histogram - How To Take Crisp/Sharp Photos - How to Get Background Blur These cards teach universal photography concepts that will help you shoot on any DSLR, SLR, or mirrorless camera model. The content is not brand-specific (suitable for Nikon, Canon, Sony, etc) so it does refer to your model specifically. For example, you’ll need to look in your manual to see which dial changes your aperture, but these cards explain WHY you want to change your aperture and how it affects your images.

  • A must for any new photographer
Color: Bright
These cards are so helpful. I’ve done photography in the past but it’s been awhile and I’ve forgotten a lot of stuff. So after getting a new camera I wanted a good reference guide for taking better pictures in manual mode and found this gem. Everything is so well organized and easy to understand and quick to access if you’re having trouble in one area. I think the thing I like best about it is the size and portability. (See photo of it next to my canon g7x Mark ii) It’s the perfect size to throw into my camera bag and have on hand when I’m out in the field taking pictures and need the help. Also with it being a harder plastic it looks like it’ll hold up for awhile. Bonus: It also comes with a free online mini photography course that goes thru the cards more in depth which helped when I first got the cards. Anyway, I can’t say enough good things about this. Definitely worth it if your new to DSLRs and want to get off just shooting in auto mode. ... show more

  • Great Handy Reference
Color: Bright
Since I'm enthusiastic photography hobbyist, I was looking for a small set of laminated "cheat sheet"s that would help me remember all of the tips that I've learned about taking great images, especially when I was on the go. These 11 "cheat sheet" cards by snaphappymom.com fit the bill. Not only are they handy, but they had great content, nicely designed (color-coded), and to the point. I've taken several hands-on photography courses before, but these cards are great reminders when you're on an overseas vacation or an afternoon photoshoot. Similar to sports, it's always good to have reminders when you're out in the field to help you be at your personal best. Te cards break down photography's technical terminology-- exposure triangle, aperture, histogram, white balance, etc. -- in an easy-to-understand way. These cheat sheet cards are now part of my camera bag gear and a welcome addition. ... show more

  • Perfect 💞
Color: Bright
Just perfect! Love them 💞 I thought the cards would be bigger, but the size is actually great for carrying it around. Great material, great looking, organized, super easy to understand. Perfect for visual learners or people with short attention spans. Overall, it's a great product.

  • Great cards for photography information on the go
Color: Bright
These cards are great for taking with me when I’m out taking pictures. They clip onto my camera bag so they don’t take up any room inside of it. They’re easy to read and understand. The cards are heavyweight and laminated so they don’t get easily torn or bent. I do wish there was specific info for my camera (Sony) instead of just Canon and Nikon. All in all though, these are a great reference for those new photography or who just want to have a quick reference guide while on the go. ... show more

  • Great Value! Easy to understand for beginners! Free online mini course!
Color: Bright
This is a great product! Small and easy to clip onto my camera bag. (It comes with a carabiner clip.) Great visual aids and cards that are color coded by sections. Plus, you get a free mini online course (20 minutes) to go over the basics. Extremely helpful for any beginner like me! I learned a few short cuts to make use of my camera a little easier. I will definitely recommend to any other newbies! ... show more

  • Really useful for beginners! Love it!
Color: Bright
I stumbled upon this cheat sheet set while looking for a tripod for my camera to use for a photography course through my college. I wasn’t originally going to buy it, because the topics on the cards we had already discussed in class. I’m glad I did buy these little cards, because I learned some new information! I also didn’t realize when you buy these card sets (there’s apparently 3 different sets) you get a free photography course, which is where I learned some new stuff! Overall this was a really great buy! I also ordered the Lighting & Composition set, and I’m excited for it to arrive after looking through this set! I highly recommend for beginners! ... show more

  • Would recommend!
Color: Classic
This has helped me so much as a first time photographer. Pulling your phone out to find where you saved all these tips is irritating, this comes in handy for sure! Very well made!

  • Excellent item.
Color: Bright
These are great for the BEGINNER. I am a beginner and these help me with settings. I have seen other reviews criticizing these cards. Those are people who obviously already know everything. If you are like me and just starting out with a DSLR I recommend these cards. They help. They are sturdy. They clip to the outside of your bag for easy access. You won't be disappointed. If you already know all the basics to your camera then these will not be of help. ... show more
