" Great class. So informative. John Greengo is such a fantastic tutor and explains everything in such and easy-to-understand way. I would highly recommend this class. Prior to doing this class, I was so confused about which lenses are best for various photography. Now I understand lenses completely. Thanks John!" Arleen
" This was my first Jon Greengo class, but it will not be my last! I've heavily researched the lenses I have, but still learned a few valuable tidbits about using them, and some great info about future acquisitions. He zips through info to get as much as possible in the class, which I appreciate - no useless repetition and a lot of bang for the buck. Excellent!" Jilly
