Great Content at a Bargain - Highly Recommended
I give the content and Tony and Chelsea, for their presentation and teaching style, 5 stars. This DVD contains a lot of information with great visual examples to assist the learning. That said, the overall quality of the blu-ray did not match the usual quality I have grown to expect from the Tony and Chelsea. The segments lacked a consistent quality in video and audio. It felt like the editor took many videos filmed at various times and places and with different recording equipment. Maybe they were going for that home video mashup? Regardless, the DVD is still a bargain and contains really good stuff for the beginner and a great refresher for the advanced photographer who is still open to learning. I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed with your results. Spend some time watching the DVD ( or with their books), get out and shoot and try what you learned and you will take stunning photos.

Maybe I just got a bad disc?
I give 5 stars for the CONTENT but about 2 stars for the actual bluray. There were MANY instances of skipping and strange artifact around the top of the screen. Maybe I just got a bad disc??? Volume isn't consistent throughout the video--sometimes I had to turn the TV up into 50's in volume only to have my eardrums ruptured when the segments changed. I'm not sure if that is a production issue or goes back to the bad disc. The content is very helpful and I have other educational materials from Tony Northrup. I would recommend his material to anyone who wants to get into photography!

Kodak put out a video years ago that was better. I got this for my granddaughter
It was ok. Kodak put out a video years ago that was better. I got this for my granddaughter, who is interested in taking top rate pictures and hope this helps her. If I could find the old Kodak one, I would buy it also.

Well worth your time
I have used Tony's books and have learned a lot from them. The videos are also excellent. I use them when away from wifi. Highly recommended.

My Blu-ray DVD player can't read this Video
I can't get this to play on my DVD player. It can't read it I guess. I do have a Blu-ray player so don't know why this is a problem. Does anybody else have this problem? The book is great and I recommend it. I thought watching the video would be helpful.
