"Have loved the other John Greengo classes I've watched & purchased - and this is another winner! Having been a high school/college science teacher, it is refreshing to take a course with someone who not only is extremely experienced, seems to be a computer having stored so much knowledge, but is equally concerned about making the information truly understandable to different levels. And he shares the information using every tool he can: slides, video, interactive presentations, and great quizzes. I learned so much about my Canon lenses - and lenses in general with their many components. I am excited about testing each of mine to see what macro ratio they handle, and especially appreciated the tutorial on testing each for their specific quirk that affects super sharpness. This class is great whether you own Canon lenses or not. Thanks John Greengo!" Tami
" Outstanding presentation! John did a great job of explaining and demonstrating how the lens work using either a full frame or cropped sensor camera. Much valuable information was provided along with great tips. It was easy to follow and understand. It's an excellent class for photographers of all levels. A must have!" C Hollywood
" John Greengo is one of the best teachers you'll find for demystifying the entire DSLR system. I really appreciate his practical, no-nonsense advice and ability to break down complex concepts into digestible chunks. Once you've been bitten with the photography bug, investing in lenses will consume a lot of your budget and time - deciding which lens you "need", comparison shopping, reading reviews, etc. John Greengo does a great job in comparing the relative features of the Canon lens lineup and the knowledge you gain from this class will definitely help you decide where to spend your "lens-bucks"!"
