[QUOTE="nickt, post: 234309, member: 4923"] Everyone learns differently. I am not a classroom kind of guy. I prefer to read and sometimes watch a few videos. I'll read/watch, then try some hands on, then go back and google specific details that I'm shaky on or ask on a forum. I'm talking here mainly about learning the technical details. I'm pretty good with the technical part. I'm not so good with the creative part. I think there may be some benefit, if not just inspiration, from a class on the creative aspects of photography. I would say try on your own to learn the technical stuff. If that doesn't work out, then consider a basic course. Once you have that down, see where your creative side takes you and decide if you need another class. Learn the science part first though, it will help you understand your user manual and learn to operate your camera without frustration.
