Photography classes/course

[Serqet]

So i am interested in taking a photography class or course. Where is the best place to do this? I have seen a few around but am not sure how good the course is. Also, money is an issue so nothing too expensive would be suitable.

Anyone been on a course or know of one?

I'd like to know as well.

Well i went and got the online course from http://www.pictureperfect.co.za/

Its a nice PDF manual, and you email the guy your "assignments" and he'll crit them and give you advice.. worked out quite nicely, and I could do it in my own time which for me was great...

I have tons of PDFs, but I hate them. I want a face-to-face class.

Usually i'm the same, but lately, I just don't have the time for a structure class....

I don't know how successful i would be with a PDF structured course via the internet.

Might give it a bash though! Thanks for the info.

I agree with mercurial in regards to a face-to-face class. I think you also learn more from actual interaction.

I've heard of this college that seems to offer really great courses but they are quite expensive IMO.

Rather get a decent book on photography. Two books which I have that I think are excellent are:

Light Science & Magic - Hunter, Fuqua
Understanding Exposure - Bryan Peterson
