Nikon D300/D300s Camera Training Workshop

As the ultimate DX professional camera in the Nikon DSLR range, the D300/D300s packs a massive amount of technology into a highly portable and rugged package.

Our “In Depth” workshop is focussed on getting to grips with the controls, functions and settings and is the ideal starting point for someone who is new to the camera or has struggled to come to terms with it’s complexity. We will take you step-by-step through it’s operation from setting-up the extensive Menu to attain results for a wide range of shooting scenarios, through to configuring the Custom functions in a way that best suits your shooting style and expectation of outcome.

You will learn how to master Picture Controls and know how best to set white balance to ensure results have optimum colour quality. You will become proficient in operating the AF modes and know how to exploit the state-of-the-art 51 point AF mechanism to best effect.

We will assume that certain photo basics such as shooting modes, exposure control and depth of field are already understood, and that you will already know about the various image file formats and their advantages also. This is a very thorough and intensive workshop that strives to incorporate as much practical hands-on experience as possible alongside a huge amount of valuable background theory about the camera and it’s technology, all done within a friendly classroom environment with fellow Nikon enthusiasts!

This is a full day workshop, we start promptly at 09:00 and finish around 18:00.
