Additional workshop details
For either workshops, bring an empty SD memory card if you would like to take sample footage or photos with the Canon gear.
You do not need to have or bring a Canon camera to attend the workshop. If you do have a Canon camera, please bring it to the event, so you can try different lenses. There will be adapters so your Canon DSLR works with the Canon SLR lenses.
These workshops are free to Carthage students and supported by Canon.
