The Main DSLR Photography Course is a comprehensive course designed to teach you how to use and achieve the best from your DSLR, mirrorless or digital camera as well as how to "capture the moment" - helping you take better more eye-catching photographs. The Course uses a hands-on, practical approach and works because each topic is carefully explained and then followed by practical hands-on sessions with lots of individual help - made possible by the small group sizes. Attendees progress much faster this way than by trying to work through their manuals - which although useful can be a source of frustration.
