Dr. Blacktape Suggests... Bring a roll of Black Tape to the first session. Inspect each student's camera and use the Black Tape to turn each of the Zooms into a 50 or 35 for the three days. Additionally, turn all the function switches to Manual and then place a piece of Black Tape over the switches. You will have given them all manual cameras with nothing but "prime" lenses. And you will have struck a blow for Dr. Blacktape and his faithful companion, Tootsie.. ;-) http://members.tripod.com/B_D_Colen/ADayInOurLife
