Learn the basics of long exposure photography and try out some filters!
About the event
Ever wanted to learn how to get that silky smooth water effect in your landscape images? Or you know the theory of long-exposure photography, but haven't made the jump to get your own filters?
This is the workshop for you!
Come join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Andrew Clarke for a sunset long-exposure workshop on the northern beaches of Perth, learn the basics of long-exposure photography and tryout a range of brand new lens filters courtesy of Australian filter company Gobe while you're at it!
We'll have a range of Gobe neutral density (ND) and circular polarising filters (CPL) available to tryout in the following filter thread sizes: 49mm, 55mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, 77mm and 82mm.
If your lens has a different filter size to the ones listed, please contact the host using the details in the FAQ section below, and we will be able to source something suitable for you to try.
Hope to see you there!
