You've watched the tutorials. But in front of the scene, you end up on auto.

If that sounds familiar, this is for you.

You understand the exposure triangle, but in front of the dunes at sunset you don't know what to set

The tutorial was about the camera. You're standing in front of the scene and the light keeps changing.

You get home and the shot is out of focus, full of noise or blown-out

You can't redo it: the sunset is gone, the Milky Way has moved on, the dunes are an hour out of town.

You think your camera isn't good enough

You see someone else's Milky Way shot and start eyeing a dearer camera. But most of the time the problem isn't the camera, it's the settings.

There's no time to look things up in front of the scene

The light goes, the bird takes off, the fireworks start. Reading articles on your phone is out of the question.

Six things a tutorial video never gave you.

✓

You know what to set, without the theory

Open the scene and you've got four numbers: ISO, aperture, shutter speed, focus.

✓

For your type of camera

Three columns on every sheet: full frame, APS-C and phone. No guessing whether it applies to you.

✓

10 seconds, not forty minutes

You read the numbers at the top of the sheet. The explanation is one line, not a video.

✓

If something goes wrong, you fix it on the spot

The "If it looks like this…" line tells you what to change before you leave the spot.

✓

In your pocket, not in your head

On your phone or printed in the camera bag. There's nothing to memorise.

✓

Scenes you'll actually shoot

Milky Way, the dunes, sunset, fireworks, the Corniche at sunrise and Doha at night – 42 scenes, 43 sheets on light and 44 on the camera and composition.

Why it works

You don't need to learn the camera. You need to learn the scene.

The same camera needs completely different numbers for the Milky Way and for a sunlit dune – and nobody has ever put them all on one sheet.

That's why you end up on auto. It's not your fault: the course is about the camera, but you're standing in front of the scene. Camera Cheat Sheets give you four numbers for every scene: open the sheet for the scene you're in and you've got the settings for your type of camera.

It's only an example: the settings are starting points and need adjusting to the light and your camera.

Three moments you'll reach for this.

Saturday · 4:40 pm

At the Ras Abrouq cliffs, after sunset

Lookout sheet

The light is going but the valley still has colour. You open the Lookout sheet: the four numbers are right there and the blue hour is still on.

Friday · 6:30 pm

In the MIA park, over the bay

City at night sheet

City lights, shooting handheld. The City at night sheet gives you the shutter speed so the shot doesn't come out with camera shake.

Sunday · 2:00 pm

Out in the desert, under the stars

Milky Way sheet

The stars come out as streaks, or the frame is black. Milky Way sheet and the fix line: two tweaks and shoot again.

Three steps, the same in every scene.

Open it at the scene

The Scene Map tells you which sheet to open. You don't have to choose: it's already chosen.

Read the four numbers

ISO, aperture, shutter speed, focus – in 10 seconds, for your type of camera.

Shoot and, if needed, fix it

The "If it looks like this…" line tells you what to change. One tweak and go again.

Works at night, out in the desert and in the city.

Three parts that work together.

Adventure

42 Adventure Sheets

42 scenes in five groups: night & sky, water & motion, life, city & street, landscape & adventure. On every sheet: four numbers, three columns (full frame, APS-C, phone), "What to pack?" and the "If it looks like this…" line. For your phone, or to print at A6.

Value QAR 75

Light

43 Light Sheets

43 sheets on light: natural light, indoor light, artificial and night light, shaping light. You open one when the light changes and you don't know which number changes with it.

Value QAR 59

Camera & composition

44 Camera & Composition Sheets

22 sheets on the camera (ISO, aperture, shutter speed, metering, focus, RAW, histogram…) and 22 on composition (rule of thirds, leading lines, framing…). Only the theory you really use: one sheet, one idea. Includes the Scene Map: it tells you which sheet to open for each scene.

Camera basics, turned into scenes.

The course is about the camera. But you're standing in front of the scene. So I sorted the settings by scene, not by the camera menu.

The settings start from the fundamentals of photography: the exposure triangle, how much noise cameras tolerate and the 500 rule for the night sky, as they're taught in photography courses. Here, though, not as theory but by scene and type of camera, turned into a cheat sheet.

In Qatar you'll find dark skies out at Khor Al Adaid and in the desert around Al Kharrara: that's why The Milky Way Cheat Sheet includes a summary of the best nights and places.

RS Rashid Al Suwaidi
Hobby photographer, mirrorless · Doha

★★★★★

I shot on auto for years. With the Milky Way sheet I nailed, first go out at Khor Al Adaid, a shot I'd only ever seen in other people's feeds.

PN Priya Nair
Shoots on her phone · Doha

★★★★★

I thought it was only for people with a camera. Cheat Sheets for Your Phone came as a gift and I haven't ruined a sunset since.

HF Hassan Farouk
APS-C camera · Al Rayyan

★★★★★

The three columns settled it: I don't have to work out what applies to my camera. Out in the desert, the fix line saved my shot.

SC Sue Campbell
Travels and shoots · Al Wakrah

★★★★☆

I printed them and keep them in the camera bag. Four stars because a few sheets take more practice than I expected. But the numbers are spot on.

OK Omar Khalil
Hobby photographer · Al Khor

★★★★★

I've watched loads of tutorials. This is different because there's nothing to watch: I open the scene and that's it.

ET Emma Taylor
Just bought a camera · Lusail

★★★★★

I got the camera for Christmas and manual mode terrified me. After the sheets, my city-at-night shots are finally sharp.

The 3-Scene Guarantee · 30 days

If you can't find the settings, you don't pay.

Try 3 scenes with your camera. If on none of them you can find the settings in 10 seconds, email us within 30 days and we'll refund you. You keep the files.

The guarantee covers what we promise – that you find the settings – not printing or image quality.

What people usually ask before buying.

I already know the tutorial videos. How is this different?

It isn't about the camera, it's about the scene: you open the sheet for the scene you're in (the dunes, sunset, Milky Way) and in 10 seconds you've got four numbers for your type of camera. There's no theory to watch.

Which cameras does it work with?

DSLRs, mirrorless cameras and phones. Every sheet has three columns: full frame, APS-C and phone. If you can switch to manual mode, you can use them.

What if I'm a beginner?

Perfect. Every sheet says what to set and, in one line, why. If you can follow a recipe, you can follow this.

Can I use it on my phone? Do I have to print it?

The sheets open on your phone, tablet and computer, and Cheat Sheets for Your Phone is a gift covering pro mode and night mode. You don't have to print: the A6 version is for people who want paper in the camera bag.

Will my photos always come out like that?

We don't promise image quality: the settings are starting points and need adjusting to the light and your camera. What we promise is that you'll find them for your scene in 10 seconds.

When and in what format do I get it?

After payment you get a confirmation straight away with a welcome guide. The full material arrives by email within 48 hours, as PDFs that open on your phone, tablet and computer.

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay once, QAR 79, and it's yours.

What if it's not for me?

There's the 3-Scene Guarantee: you have 30 days to try it and ask for a full refund. You keep the files.

Next time you're standing in front of a scene, you'll already know what to set.

129 sheets, the Scene Map and three gifts. Open it at the scene, 10 seconds and you shoot.
