The lectures start with some introductory material, starting with four key terms in Lecture 2. Even if you know some photography, I suggest you take Lecture 3: A few key truths.

Round up is some advice on how to buy, finishing off with three of my top tips in the final lesson.

This is an outstanding course, professionally presented in a pleasant style that will inform and delight the beginning photographer and probably save the novice buyer a lot of money.
Great course if your buying a camera easy to follow and great tips too thank you Ang
A very good course aimed at either a novice or advanced photographer. Explains everything you need to know about
all the components that are needed to take a photograph
and how each one affects the final result of an image.
Very pleasant to listen to. Great information to use in knowing not only what to buy, but some basic understanding on using some features. Would love more instruction.
An eye opening course on what one really needs as opposed to what is nice to have. This course will certainly help me make right decisions when pursuing additional camera equipment.
Tom's course is very timely for me as I'm in the process now of selecting a DSLR. While it doesn't dig into the video capabilities of cameras, it does a great job of explaining capabilities and considerations for still photography; great balance of theory, key terms and practical applications in plain english.
