Equipment hire

The Club has a range of equipment that is available for members to hire. In some cases this is free, in others there is a small charge. The equipment includes:

• Canon XEED SX-60 digital projector
• Sony VAIO laptop with software
  
• Wacom Intuos3 A5 Tablet
• X-Rite Eye-one for monitor calibration
• Bowens Esprit studio flash outfit
• Studio backgrounds and supports

The software includes:

• Adobe Photoshop CS4
• Adobe Photoshop Elements

This is a great opportunity to experiment with these programs.

We also have books about Lightroom and hopefully we will be getting some more training materials.

Making a start with blogging

Here we are with our revamped website - thanks Joules and looking forward to your continuing webmastering.

This is a good opportunity to thank Julie and Ian Coombes for organising the photo competition at St Annes Junior & Infants schools and also for the excellent turn out of club members on the day. We put on an impressive show which drew a lot of interest.

We'll continue to sponsor local photo competitions under the theme of Photo in the Community - "What I Like & What I'd like to Change"
