Tamron Launches How-to Video Series for DSLR Owners

Tamron just announced the second series of its free how-to video series for first-time Digital SLR owners. Those who are experienced, but want to continue learning new techniques for taking better photos will get something out of the video series as well. Starting on June 7, 2010, and every Monday for 12 weeks, Tamron will release a one-minute episode of "DSLR Know-How with Tamron: Series 201" on YouTube."

"In just one minute per week you can learn important tips to making excellent pictures at no cost," notes John VanSteenberg, Tamron's Senior Education Manager. "Each of these one-minute video demonstrations is designed to take the viewers of the first series and newcomers to a higher comfort level with their equipment and photographic techniques."

The video episodes are presented by professional photographer and instructor Ken Hubbard, who also manages Tamron's seminar and workshop events. They cover topics such as composition, macro, polarizer use, night photography and much more. Tamron says in the press release, "The goal is to expand the viewers' knowledge base as quickly as possible while providing a fun learning experience. We believe that followers who watch the entire series will be able to take their creative DSLR skill sets to a whole new level of picture-taking success."

The Tamron YouTube videos can be found on the TamronVids Channel at www.youtube.com/TamronVids, and there will be weekly links posted on the Tamron website.
