The Getting Started Course will teach you the basics so you can be up and running quickly. Perhaps you have a new camera and would like to see if photography is for you without taking the Main Course. Or perhaps you have a spare half day and what to get started. This hands-on Course will help you do just that, as well as explore what is possible. This way you can start shooting with your camera straight away and see where your photography takes you!
