    It was a very good course, but parking in the Echo Park area on the weekends is a nightmare. I suggest perhaps a different location, a weeknight or an early morning time.

    Really enjoyed the experience. Learning the controls and navigating the camera was what I wanted to accomplish by taking the course. Adding the next session which allowed me to experiment and apply techniques learned from the previous session was most beneficial to better understand the different aspects of the camera.

    The class was worth my time. The setting (Griffith Park Observatory) was perfect for instruction. The instructor was knowledgeable and helped me to understand how to make the most of the limited options available on my digital camera. I would recommend the course.

    Scott is a great instructor. He was very clear and explained everything really well. I am so glad I took his class. So much so I stayed for the next class, on composition. Had a great time and learned so much. I am looking forward to taking more classes at the Digital Photography Academy.

    the class was okay, I thought it was going to be a lot more to it. It seems like it ended early, I feel that the instructor didn't know a lot about our cameras. The questions that we had wasn't answered the way I thought they would be. Also being at the observatory wasn't a good place to practice our cameras, some of the functions we couldn't really practice because it wasn't a lot of activity there so I think the choice of venue was right.

    Scott was amazing! and We learned more in one 1.5 session from Scott than any other I know that Richard means well, but he calls WAY too much. Thank you.

    Jeromy is a wonderful teacher. My skills are limited and he has a kind and considerate way of explaining things in an easy and simple way without judgement. I will definitely take another class :) P.
