In the Latest Purchases thread you asked for a review of the "Intermediate Digital Photography" class I took today at a local camera store.
Those of you living in Seattle probably know the store.

It turned out to be great. There were only two people. An older gentleman with a D750 and myself. He's a regular.
The instructor turned it into a Q&A session. He's very good and knowledgeable.
He'd scroll though his presentation. We'd stop him and ask questions.
D750 owner had many exposure questions. Many questions about birding and his Tamzooka.
How to deal with a bright back ground and a very dark foreground without a flash.
I asked several questions relating to white balance, histograms, AF tuning, why his store doesn't sell Yongnuo, and a couple of "what does this setting do questions".

I escaped from the store spending only $37. I bought a Rocket Blaster and four Eneloop Pro's.

A good time was had by all.

Miss M says Hi!.

Wow, you certainly covered more than I expected you would, but since there were only two of you (and the other guy must have been somewhat knowledgeable since he had a D750), that allowed the instructor to cater the session to your levels. Nice! :) I hope you were able to learn something tonight, Zeke.

By the way, I'm curious as to the answer about not carrying the Yongnuo flash. I'm not sure if there even are many places in the US that carry them.

Thanks for sharing!
