Macro (Close Up) Photography Seminar

Seminar Description

Using a camera tethered to a computer our instructor will lead you on an exploration of Macro Photography using a combination of lecture and hands on, real world demonstrations. Our instructor will take photos which will immediately be projected on a screen allowing students to see exactly what the instructor is "talking about". Students will see different pieces of Macro Photography equipment in use including how to set up and use each piece of equipment. This equipment will include lenses, extension tubes, bellows, lens reversing ring, macro filters, macro flash, off camera flash, reflectors and more. The demonstrations are in the studio to eliminate the possibility of any weather related issues and students may bring one or two items to be used in the demonstrations!
