Free photography classes? Sign us up...

Nikon has announced it will stream online photography courses for free for the entire month of April. Now through 30 April, all 10 classes available at the Nikon School can be viewed for free with classes ranging from 15 minutes to well over an hour. The classes usually cost between $15 and $50 on the Nikon US website, so in total for the 10 classes, you're getting $250 worth of photography classes for free. Each class is taught by a professional photographer and provides in-depth lessons which will help you take better photos. As Nikon is obviously trying to promote its own hardware, some of the classes are about Nikon-specific products but there's plenty of others to sink your teeth into including one on photography fundamentals and another on the art of making music videos. All you have to do to sign up is follow this link and while you do have to give your name and email address to Nikon, we're sure that won't be a privacy stumbling block for many of you. It's also worth noting that due to the intense demand for the online courses, the Nikon School online has been experiencing some difficulties so if it doesn't work for you the first time, try again a little later and you might have more success.
