Why do people wanna pay for classes like these, $20 is a rip off. You mean I pay $20 to have you read the amnual for me and tell me what I can do with my camera? Come on, I can do that a over a cup of tea and some makan (a bowl of noddles or chicken rice) and get to keep a new friend.

Just thick about it $20 x 20 = $400 for the "instructor" to earn wow easy money man. I smell something fishy or maybe a rat. Anyway the class size is too big for any proper instruction.

Just my view, please DO TAKE OFFENCE, I'm offended.

I fully support u tommon. It used to be $5 just to make sure those sign up are serious and will turn up, not to pay instructor. If it is to share the joy of photography, the instructor should be more than happy to spend the time to meet up and make new friends. It is easy money $400 for 3-4 hours work talking about something repeatingly every week or every other week. Materials need to prepare only once, and some updating regularly. If as Mr Yee says, he got better things to do, than why take up the job?

u wan u take up the course.
dun wan then dun sign up for it.
why bother about it?

if u r talking about the joy of photography.
why dun u ask nikon to sell us d2x at ultra cheap prices.
i bliff they like photography as much as we do.
but u still need money to survive. this is the real world.

:devil: :devil: :devil:

Seriously ..... if you felt this is a workshop that is not justified, then by all means, don't join it. Nobody put a knife at your throat to force you to join.

If you had read his thoughts about this issue, I believe that you had quoted him out of context. You do not 'snip' one small part of anyone's message to represent the entire message. That's misrepresentation. That doesn't do you any justice.

BTW, I attended his course and found it worthwhile. IMO.

I work and i get paid....i work hard i get recognition....in this world we get what we work for.

Btw photography can be affordable but can be very expensive too....if really $20 is such a big peanut i reckon that one should really opt for a cheaper hobby.

Sungei road laksa used to be $0.50, then $1.00, but now $2.00....i'm not complaining lah...just to state we can't compare the present with the past....long long time ago MATA wear shorts and ride bicycle you know.

This is discussion about mileage you get out of $20.

I just saw HWM Guide to Digital Photography on the shelf for $18. Really nice book for beginner, very well illustrated for the amount you pay. It seems to be a local effort, if it is, its very well done. Best of all, you get a card reader free.

Damn value for money. I must say.

Mod: If you feel this is OT from this thread, feel free to move this to any thread that is related to review of Steven's course.

One more thing to add. If you:

1) Know the fundamentals of photography &
2) Just unpacked your new D70(s) out of the box and have not read your manual

Dun waste your time (and money) to attend the course.
