Welcome to Digital Photography School
Welcome to DPS – a site that helps digital camera owners to get the most out of their digital cameras.
Today has seen an influx of new readers into the site (someone seems to have linked to us on a larger email newsletter – can someone email me to let me know where you’re all coming from?) – (update: it seems a lot of people are coming from the Earthlink email – thanks to all who have emailed) so I thought I’d take a moment to introduce what this site is about:
- We write regular tips for normal people wanting to learn how to use a digital camera to it’s potential in everyday situations.
- Tips are for all types of digital cameras from point and shoot cameras to Digital SLRs.
- No jargon, no technical language, no assuming you’ve got loads of experience – just good solid advice to help you take your digital photography skills to the next level.
- We create fun group assignments that relate to our tips for readers to participate in and have as a practical way to put into practice the principles we write about.
- Tips are posted by experienced photographers most days and usually have pictures in them to illustrate the principles being talked about.
The best way to follow this site is to use one of our two Subscription methods (a free weekly email newsletter or our RSS fee) and to come back throughout each week to get our latest tips.
