Topics will include the history of photography, hands-on work with pinhole cameras, large format cameras, scanners, digital cameras, and camera phones. We will also visit galleries and museums to view examples of work related to course discussions. 3.000 Credit hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Studio, Tutorial Art Department Course Attributes: Inquiry and Exploration Restrictions: Must be enrolled in one of the following Levels:            Undergraduate
