If people want to private message their camera models that they'll be bringing, I can make sure I understand how the camera operates so I can answer questions a little faster. Knowing your camera is key to taking better photos.

hey jon, we re-met again other night when you showed me the ropes of the tech booth.

i've been shooting 35mm film for a long time, and i finally upgraded to digital. i just bought a Canon 7D that i'm incredibly excited about. i'm still waiting on it to arrive at Precision Camera, but i think it should get in this week. i could definitely use some expert knowledge in getting the most out my new camera's functions.

is there still room in your workshop this sunday if my camera arrives in time?
