    I've owned my DLSR for about 4 years but never really felt that I knew how to use it properly -- I just got lucky with shots. Jones know a lot about photography and gives his unabashed opinion -- he's a character! This class requires a DSLR and I was surprised by how many students on the first day thought they could use a point and shoot or their cell phone camera. You must have a DSLR to do the assignments. It says bring your camera to the second class, but I brought it to every class. I found it helpful to pull it out and look up / fiddle with things as he was describing them -- not waiting to try it when I got home. I agree with some of the other reviews that this class is more about listening/lecturing than 'doing' -- but the homework assignments are relevant and helped reinforce the materials. I'd recommend this to anyone that's starting to get into photography, or even wants a refresher.

    The instructor Larry Jones is amazing... I would highly recommend anyone who is trying to learn photography either for personal use or professionally to take the basics and the beyond basiscs with him.

    Good class, awesome teacher with many years experience. The class should mention that its focus is mainly on dslr cameras, so if you don't have one and are not interested in getting one i wouldn't recommend this class. If you want to learn all about how to use your dslr camera this is a really good class to take.

    The professor was great, but told a lot of stories that weren't really relative to photography. He had a great sense of humor & was encouraging. It was disappointing that the last class didn't really have any content, but was mostly a confusing review of the other classes.

    If you liked to be lectured at for a 3 hour period about photography, with no visuals... this is the class for you.
