Hub's Out-of-the-Box DSLR Introduction Class



Now What?



For the first time DLSR owner, opening the box can be an overwhelming, even intimidating, event.  There's paper work galore, software CDs, data card, cables, batteries, neckstrap, lens and even a camera packed away in that "impossible to repack" box.  Then you take a close look at the camera.  All those dials, menus, knobs, buttons and secret doors.

Where I you begin?  Better yet, how do I take my first pictures?

Don't panic.  You're not alone.  All photographers have been there. We have a solution.  Sign up for Hub's Out-of-the-Box Introductory Class for beginning DSLR users.  This three hour class will take you from opening the box to taking your first pictures -- including how to attach that darn neckstrap to the camera.
