Rated 4 out of 5 by Great for anyone new to DSLR cameras The course went for four hours which I felt was a good amount of time, however would have loved to receive a handout or time to write down notes- as we were often walking around this wasn't always possible. The course content was always interesting and informative. 15 May 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by Amazing What can I say.. Amazing. Went into this experience with knowledge of the principles of Photography, so I wasn't expecting to learn a lot.. I was proven wrong. The instructor was great. Covered everything for the beginners and put everything in place for the not so beginners. A well organised, value for money course, that everyone with a DSLR or ILC should do. 18 March 2013
