About the event

Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Craig Turnbull for a One on One Sony Alpha introduction, setup and customisation session. This is not a beginners workshop for those wanting to learn how to take photos, but rather a 3-hour session designed just for you. First up we will sit down over a cup of coffee in the Garden Room and discuss the genres of photography you are mainly interested in, followed by listing any issues you are having, perhaps adapting to a new system, or using a particular function of your camera.

Together we will then setup and customise your camera just for you, making sure you know how to do this yourself and change settings or any custom keys in the future.

Once setup, we will head off into the park and test out these settings in real-life examples. Changes can be made as we go along and instruction given in areas your may be struggling with.

We can finish this up in the Garden Room Cafe, load some images into a laptop for review and discussion, as well as go over any final questions.
