About the event

Get dialled in before we hit the trails.

This optional online catch up is designed for anyone attending the Mountain Bike Photography Workshop on 18th April. It is a relaxed Zoom session where we will walk through recommended camera settings, gear choices, and what to expect on the day so you can arrive confident and ready to shoot.

We will cover how to set up your camera for fast moving riders, autofocus tips, shutter speeds for sharp action or motion blur, lens choices, and practical shooting approaches for trail environments. There will also be time for questions, troubleshooting, and personal setup advice.

Joining this session means less fiddling with menus on the day and more time capturing great images when the action starts.
