I agree with almost everything that has been said here, except that that are using D5000. That's the first thing I looked for as I am Nikon user, and after the presenter said 'The best tools' I was intrigued as to what that might be.. liar... Entry level camera.
As far as entertainment/education value is concerned, missed the mark totally. No info on camera settings, problems faced, technical info etc etc. As mentioned before, more of a 'lets get on with it to see who's the winner' Might as well skip ahead to the last episode in my opinion. No behind the scenes drama, trials and tribulations. To much talking from presenter..
