I've really enjoyed learning the specifics of different cameras. Reading the manuals and then going hands on immediately after has been just what I needed. I feel much more comfortable picking up the available cameras and working with them quickly and efficiently, knowing where the things I need are located physically on them. I've also expanded what I know about filters, specifically the polarizer. I think I'm realizing that my strengths lie on the side of direction and composition. DPing is sometimes challenging in that I just still don't feel like I'm as quick at it as I want to be yet. My directing brain knows where it wants to go much faster than my DP brain knows how to get there. I'm continuing to work on expanding the way I think about the technicalities of light. It is rewarding to just get more experience and know that I am getting faster at picking things up.
