COURSE REQUIREMENTS

■ This course is suitable for amateurs or hobbyists wanting to move on from shooting on the "Auto" mode

■ The course is very comprehensive and detailed with easy to understand, step by step procedures to teach you every facet of camera handling skills, composition, lighting and a myriad of other techniques to become a better photographer

■ Any full or cropped frame DSLR camera, mirrorless camera or quality compact is perfect. Full frame cameras with their bigger sensors will give better results

■ A lens or lenses that cover focal lengths from around 18-200mm - many cameras come with a 'twin lens kit' eg 18-55mm and 55-250mm

■ Either the camera's in-built flash or an external on-camera flash unit

■ A tripod

■ We highly recommend you have a smartphone for posting to social media and its ability to take excellent images in sharp clean light and offering an array of other great features like pano, burst mode, editing in the phone, video and much more. Smartphones have virtually replaced compact cameras

■ A quality compact can be useful as you are learning. Look at a Lumix, Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus etc. These are particularly good as a back up cameras

■ A sturdy tripod, U/V, ND and polarising filters
