Photography Forum?

[casademurphy]

What's the best photography forum out there?

Any suggestions on where I can take classes (in person or online) to learn more about my camera and photography?

http://photography-on-the.net/forum/index.php is my favorite.

Here are a couple of good sites to get you started:

http://web.canon.jp/imaging/enjoydslr/index.html

http://www.ximinasphotography.com/lessons/

and if you get interested in off camera flash, the strobist site is great (be sure to check out the lighting 101 and 102 links): http://strobist.blogspot.com/

Thanks! Any Nikon specific sites, or does it matter?

photography-on-the.net is Canon focused but it's a friendly forum and you'll see quite a few Nikon shooters on there.

I believe www.nikonians.org is pretty popular with Nikon users but since I shoot Canon I haven't gone there and can't really offer any first hand experience. I'm sure others will chime in.

For photo sharing and critique, I really like fredmiranda.com

No offense, but this is the best Photography forum out there, or in here as the case may be.

Or, you could check here.
www.nikoncafe.com

for Nikon, there's

www.nikoncafe.com
www.nikonions.org
www.nikongear.com

DPreview is okay, but there's too many bad advice from people who post something just to post something. Photo.net and flickr.com forums are okay, just very cluttered.

Photography-on-the.net is this shiiizzzz
It's worth buying Canon just to be a legit member. It's larger than Reef Central but all Canon all the time.
I'm a fan of The Strobist as well.

Thanks everyone!

On a side note . . . Can anyone out there recommend a site or tutorial for me to understand how to use Nikon Capture?

 

[kilroy217]

http://www.dtowntv.com is pretty good for fun tips and tricks. If you're willing to pay http://www.kelbytraining.com is a great tutorial site for everything photo-related.

 

[BlueCorn]

lynda.com is another great training site. For $25 per month you can view and unlimited number of tutorials.

Just an FYI - Nikonians seems to also be a fee-based site. I was online there for a month or so, and always opted out of their pop-ups asking for me to sign up for a "gold membership". Then I got an email saying my account would be closed if I didn't subscribe....so I moved on.

I like the Fred Miranda forums, too. The macro forum there rocks!

Nikoncafe for nikon specific can't be beat. Nikonians too stiff

lightcafe.net for critique/learning

 

[TitusvileSurfer]

IceMan needs to put out his Pentax forum.

I totally agree, Lord V on there is amazing at macro shots and he is extremely helpful as well.
