Exclusive entry after hours to a truly remarkable and historic railway setting. What better way could you spend a cold January evening, but amongst fine steam locomotives and an interactive low-light photo session? Characters in period costume, excellently directed, but happy to oblige with individual posed sets. Maybe no real steam during the evening but the smoke machines and effect-lighting provided an atmosphere better than the real thing (except the smell of hot engines and coal smoke).

If you've purchased a Z series camera this course is invaluable. Ricci was a great instructor and spent a lot of time going through the functionality of the camera and giving us real-life tips from his own experiences. In no way were we pushed to buy anything which was great. This is a fabulous course delivered by people who are passionate about photography and Nikon's products. I'd highly recommend it.

Ricci is an outstanding teacher and an accomplished artist with the Z series camera. I learnt so much in class and then applied it in the afternoon practicals
session. I came away with updated camera firmware and knowledge. The course exceeded my expectations.

The welcome was excellent as was the trainer - the students had a mixed range of skill levels but all were very enthusiastic. The training was relaxed, in depth and time allowed for questions as needed. I worked in photography for many years from my late teens into my forties, after the emergence of digital my career took a different path. I am now semi retired, this simple but effective course has improved my understanding of digital cameras. I will be able now to enjoy my photography again.

Really enjoyed the day. Great trainer who set the tone and pace nicely, informative and responsive all the way through. Nice environment. Enjoyable group who were mostly at same level which helped. Very useful for filling in a lot of gaps and establishing a firm foundation for camera set up and practical techniques.

This was my first training experience with Nikon School and this definitely won't be the last. Ricci spent almost an hour explaining some of the fundamentals of low light photography and created lot of excitement by sharing stunning pictures of locations we were to visit. The evening was enjoyable, fun and most important full of new learnings & this was all possible because of Ricci's friendly and professional approach. A lovely evening !!!

The welcome was professional, the session began on time was excellently conducted by Ricci who was excellent as a trainer. He took me through the camera slowly logically testing my knowledge in a very non judgemental way. I came away feeling very confident to handle the camera.

This course covered a lot of information during the day and the time seemed to fly by. The trainer was very knowledgeable and answered all of the questions asked by the attendees, very often with an example from his own, enviable, photography. The presentation materials were clear and the practical session cemented what we had learned throughout the day. The students had a range of Nikon DSLRs but the trainer made sure that everyone got the best out of their kit.

I found the course extremely beneficial and learnt a lot about my camera and how best to do things. It will take some practising to fully understand it all, as I find I learn better when practically doing things.

I have been using my Z6 extensively for 12 months. Sometimes I have trouble shooting in high contrast situations - was it me or the camera ? Ricci was excellent - spent the first 15 minutes listening to me, looking at images and asking lots of questions. We then spent a very enjoyable 90 mins running through about 10 different areas to improve my understanding, offering some tips on light/composition, and explaining some excellent camera features which would help - and they really do. Thankyou!
