Here’s what’s going on with Midwest Photo Exchange in March:
Our Intermediate DSLR Class is happening on March 16! Do you want to learn more about metering, focus, composition, among other topics? This class might be the one for you. You can even register online!
We’re also offering Off Camera Flash Level 1 and Level 2 classes again on March 23 and March 24 respectively. Want to take that flash off your camera so you can start taking some real photos? Kevin Deskins, Product Manager at LumoPro and all-around lighting nerd/genius, will help you get a running head-start to become the next Strobist. Register today!
We will be at the WPPI Expo at the MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas. The expo’s open March 11-13. Make sure you visit us at booth #631, where we’ll be onsite with tons of gear in stock and super prices for all your equipment needs. We will be hosting a SanDisk Trade-in Event for expo customers only. Bring your memory card to the MPEX booth and ask a sales associate about trade-in value towards a new SanDisk card. Plus, Gary Fong will be at the booth to demonstrate his popular lighting products on Monday, March 11 and Wednesday, March 13 from 1 to 3 PM. If you’re going to be in Vegas, we’d love to see you at our booth!
We will be hosting a Video Bootcamp for Photographers with Cinevate‘s resident photographer-turned-videographer, Victor Ha. Explore and learn the basic skills and elements needed in transitioning from the photography into HD Video. This two-day, hands-on seminar will investigate the concepts of story telling and what tools, skills and concepts are required in moving beyond the still and into the world of HD Video. If you’re a photographer looking to expand your repertoire for clients, or just someone who wants to learn more about shooting HDSLR video, register for this awesome two-day workshop now. This is happening Saturday, April 6 and Sunday, April 7, but don’t wait: spots are quickly filling up. Don’t miss out on this awesome event!
We’ve also got some really good rebates on lenses, printers, and cameras this month. Check out the full list here.
The Sigma 12-24mm F4.5-5.6 ultra-wide zoom lens has a $100 Instant Rebate right now. This is a newer version of Sigma’s previously beloved lens and now includes one Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass element and four of the company’s new “F” Low Dispersion FLD glass elements to compensate for color aberration (a particular problem for wide-angle lenses) and provide high image quality. Order for your Canon or Nikon mounts, or check out the rest of Sigma’s current rebates on lenses.
Do you need to make some really gorgeous prints for your portfolio? The Epson Stylus Pro 9900 has a $1,000 Instant Rebate through March. The SP 9900 utilizes ten colors – including the all-new Orange and Green – and the Epson UltraChrome HDR ink produces the widest color gamut ever from an Epson Stylus Pro printer. This is a professionally made printer for the professional photographer. You can order it here.
Are you or do you know someone who wants to break into DSLR photography but is working on a budget? The Nikon D5100 18-55 kit is under $600 with a $100 Instant Rebate. You can order it here, or check out more of Nikon’s rebates on COOLPIX, 1 Series, and DSLR cameras.
The Tamron SP 70-300mm F4-5.6 Di VC USD has a $100 mail-in rebate during March. This lens features Tamron’s Ultrasonic Silent Drive autofocus system, Vibration Compensation, and a focal range that makes it the right choice for practically any situation. Order for you Canon, Nikon, or Sony mounts, or check out the rest of Tamron’s current rebates on lenses.
