Just the job

RATING: 5 of 5

COURSE: Getting Started with Photography - Pt. 1

This course was run by Neil via Zoom and it was a really good experience for the whole afternoon. My own personal goal for attending the course was to move away from automatic settings and I now feel confident that I can do this and have a bit of a bash! Things were explained very clearly all the way through and it's all made perfect sense. I would say that the course is ideal for people just getting started all those who want to take the step. It was an excellent experience.

A great way to start the journey

COURSE: Getting Started with Photography - Pt. 1

This was an excellent course in getting to grips with the basics on how to set up a DSLR along with taking the fear away of the multitude of settings and menus. Neil explained settings and various buttons in such a way that even a novice could understand, taking time and not rushing through things. He clearly explained what was needed to start you on the journey of becoming a competent user of a DSLR camera and I look forward to another course to develop my skills further.

Getting Started with DSLR Photography review

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Getting Started with Photography - Pt. 1

I thought this course was an excellent starter course for beginners and for those wanting to understand the theory and basic of a DSLR camera. The content was excellent and for me it was just right in terms of complexity and detail so i could understand as we went through the course. The presentation via Zoom also worked well with us having the chance to ask questions via the Chat facility which would have created less discussion but allowed more content. Overall a great course.

Great course to learn life beyond the auto setting

RATING: 5 of 5

COURSE: Getting Started with Photography - Pt. 1

This was my first photography course and I was a little apprehensive as to what to expect. However I found the course to be conducted in an relaxed, interesting and professional manner. It has left me with confidence to take control of the other camera settings - without just relying on the auto button ‘point & shoot’ approach, which I had previously adopted. I would certainly consider taking additional courses to further increase my photography knowledge, based on my first experience with Nikon

Excellent Intro to Nikon DSLRs

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Getting Started with Photography - Pt. 1

An excellent course given by Neil Freeman who clearly knows the subject of Nikon cameras and is able to depart his considerable knowledge of photography at the same time. It was a packed and intense 3 hour session that was both informative and instructional at the same time. In fact we had run the course well over its allotted time such is Neil’s enthusiasm for the subject. Overall an excellent course and I recommend it to everyone who owns a Nikon DSLR camera.

Great insights for using the Z6

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Mastering the Z 6 & Z 7 Part 2

As with previous Nikon School courses Neil gave us plenty of information in a relevant and usable way. He took us through those areas of camera usage which were beyond the simple point and shoot. Careful explanation to enable us to find our way around the menus and to set up the camera as best suited our needs. The encouragement and explanation of easier access settings was especially valuable.
The on-line nature of the course worked very well and the chat feature provided good interaction.

Introduction to the Z6 - Part 1

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Mastering the Z 5, Z 6 & Z 7 Part 1

The course was very informative bearing in mind that it was carried by Zoom. Neil clearly knows his subject very well and was able to impart his knowledge to me in a comfortable manner. It is unfortunate that due to the current restrictions we are not able to physically meet as having attented a D300 training session many years ago I do prefer them to be "face to face" but I gained a lot of valuable information and will join a Part 2 session in the future.

Detailed in-depth presentation - easily absorbed

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Mastering the Z 5, Z 6 & Z 7 Part 1

A very well presented session giving a detailed in-depth view of the Z series of cameras and specifically how they can be adapted to met
your own style of photography. There was no shortage of opportunity to ask questions and a very concise but easily absorbed response from Neil
who obviously had enthusiasm for the new series of cameras. My first Nikon event but certainly not my last - I have already booked a course in the New Year on Capture One.

Excellent Course

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2020

COURSE: Mastering the Z 5, Z 6 & Z 7 Part 1

This course was brilliant, Neil explained loads of stuff that you can do with the Nikon Z6 that I didn't even know about. He took us through the menu of the Z6 and recommended some settings that should be changed.
The course was run at a good pace, which also enabled me to make some notes.
What I also liked was you were able to ask questions if you didn't understand something.
Neil has a real passion for cameras and teaching.
I highly recommend this course if you're new to the Z6 or Z7.
