There are a couple of wildly successful standouts from a consumer standpoint in the battered Retail sector. Apple Computer and their Retail stores and B&H Photo's Event Space. Both organizations use a philosophy of offering FREE infomercial seminars to explain how to use equipment and software they sell. They appeal to all levels of experience, from Newbie to Pro.
I attended Rick Sammon's Lighting Seminar & Location Outdoor Shootout for the last two days along with 80 other Photographers. Yes it was free. Sponsored also by Westcott Lighting, B&H provided professional models and we spent from 11-12 discussing the plan to shoot for the afternoon. From 2 - 4:30 we shot using the equipment, assistants, presenters and models. You can signup for B&H e-mail alerts to find out about the Events at BHPHOTOVIDEO.COM. Hint: signup ASAP, prime seminars go fast.

Thanks for taking the time to post this. We're glad you enjoyed the seminar.
