I am the photography/yearbook teacher in West Hills, CA. This is the first year that we are offering photography and the students are beyond excited. Until I told them that they would be using their phones. The look of disappointment was surprising. One student even said, "I thought we were having real cameras." These students deserve better than a cellphone, which work wonders, but the experience of using a manual control on this DSLR camera is what these students deserve so they can really create true works of art. The students plan to fund raise on campus but with other clubs and electives fundraising as well, the competition will be stiff. Thank you in advance for donating. The students will appreciate your help as they go on this photographic journey.
