Learn a little more about other lenses and what differences they make to your photography
We'll have a look at some filters too and what they do

Camera Equipment

Photography requires only a simple camera, however the techniques that I teach will benefit those who want to learn to use a camera that allows the photographer to adjust modes such as aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. This will include:

- All DSLRs

- Micro four third cameras

- Mirrorless cameras

- Most other cameras allow this functionality too.

If unsure get in touch and I'll be happy to advise. A tripod and flash would be useful but not essential as we can share and I have spares.
