If none of these courses are convenient for you, and you would prefer training on weekdays, why not book some bespoke one to one training at a time and place to suit you?

You will also be given a printed sheet for your particular make and model of camera, telling you in plain English exactly how to adjust the most important settings that we will be learning to use on the day.
