1. Answers to queries that were sent to me.

Q1. Details for pre-requisite .

A1. Basic knowledge of Photography required. This is so that the masterclass can spend quality time of the finer points in sports photography and Jed need not go thru the basic in exposure eg aperture, speed, iso.

Q2. Size of Class

A2. Max 15 pax and Min 8 pax

We have also revised the cost of the class - ie $290 for early before 20 Oct and $320 after 20 Oct.


Do not miss this opportunity, as this class is quite substantially subsidized and also Jed Wee's commitment to give back to ClubSNAP by sharing his initimate knowledge of Sports Photography.

As this mentioned earlier,

members attending this class will get to use the telephoto lens on loan from Nikon eg 300mmf2.8, 400mmf2.8, 200-400f4, 500mmf4, 600mmf4 etc. No other class offer these privileges, here.

Those using other camera brands may get to use the D3/D3s and the lenses for their practical session.

Rarely, do we have a professional practicing photographer to conduct such sports photography class. And at a very good rate (supported by CS and Nikon Singapore).

So far we have 3 sign up, we need to make it to 8 to make the class worth the while to conduct. Else we will make the decision to cancelled this class by next week. It will be a loss and missed opportunity to members if it is cancelled.
