In this course, award winning instructor, camera tester & professional wedding photographer Michael Andrew takes us on a step-by-step tour of the amazing Canon R7! This course is designed to take any photographer of any level, including pure beginners and get them up to speed as quickly as possible, and then push forward to high-level, advanced techniques.

When Michael started in 2003, before the youtube age, he learned by trial and error. It took him 2 years to fully master his camera. In 2008, after many years of shooting weddings, Michael was convinced he could develop a teaching system to help new students learn their cameras over a weekend. He's been teaching new photographers ever since! Michael's unique approach focuses on simplicity, clarity, and synthesis, which has helped thousands of beginning students learn their cameras in just a few hours.
