One Day Creative Photography and Scrap

[wanna_scrap?]

This will be held in Northwich (roughly 5 miles off J19 M6) on the

24th February 2007

**This bit is important - Your camera must be digital. it can either be a DSLR or have digital manual settings. I cannot teach creative photography to ladies who own a compact (feel rotten about that - sorry!). Manual settings are the only way to achieve the required results. Tripod is actually essential. Christmas presents perhaps???!!
Check your camera's manual now to see if you camera has these settings. RAW settings would be a bonus but not essential right now. Fuji 5500, 5600, 7000 and 9500 are suitable. Not sure of Canon and Nikons unless you have a canon 300 and above and Nikon D50 and above. Some cool pix have these settings.
However - I have 2 cameras to lend that have these settings if you would like to come on the course and are THINKING of buying a DSLR afterwards.**
