Hello,

​

I’m a beginner in photography and was looking at online course to improve faster than all by myself.

Few months ago I discovered Pierre T Lambert youtube channel and saw that he is doing an online photo course. Does someone followed it? How is it? It’s expensive (a little more than 300€ during black friday, so basicly a prime lens for my camera) but I could join it if I would improve a lot faster.

I mostly want to improve my eye then the technical aspect.I also want to learn about editing with Darktable. I’m aware that he use Lightroom in his course but I am a free software guy and run Linux everywhere, so I must learn how to edit with Darktable.

​

I’m French by the way, and this is why I would follow his French course. I could follow another one in English but prefer in French.

    You can learn the basics of photography relatively quickly with YouTube or books, but the part that no one can teach you is going out and practicing, even if it seems futile at first. Just like with any hobby or craft, practice makes 90% of it

    As a beginner I would invest in books such as Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson. I’m not a fan of most online courses because you essentially become a so-so clone of the teacher. In person is nice when you can shoot with them and get instant feedback.

      thank you for the recommendation, I’ll check it out this book. Do you know if there is a lot more between the 3rd and 4th edition?

      It seems I can get the 3rd in second hand here.
