Canon Canada's new website teaches users to shoot beyond Auto

Today Canon announced the launch of Canon Outside of Auto – an interactive website that teaches budding photographers to take creative control of their photography through adjusting manual camera settings including aperture, shutter speed and ISO.

An image of a bedroom with children’s toys, including a model airplane with a moving propeller, is used to demonstrate how users can manipulate the “look” of their photo with simple adjustments that can change depth of field and how motion is captured.

The interactive website allows users to “learn” about the various features of a DSLR, “play” with the settings and take a timed “challenge” to test their new skills.

The site is now available at www.canon.ca/outsideofauto
