Here is a link for how to make one that Mere Mortal sent to me a couple of months ago: http://www.matchboxpinhole.com/ You could use the info in your report or you could make one, or both. edit-I see he already gave you the link ;)

First of all, have you discussed what type of camera you will be required to use with the teacher of the photography class? Is this a digital or film class? If it is film, you will be required to have a film SLR. If the class is digital then you may be able to get away with a bridge camera but...

If you're talking about the software that comes with the camera or maybe Photoshop Elements, sure you could teach yourself to use that and to upload and download photos. Don't waste your time or money. No, you can not learn something as complicated as CS4 on your own unless you have significant...

The closest I can think of would be Oscar Gustav Rejlander born in 1813. He did some tableau vivant work. Probably the best known is 'The Two Ways of Life' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rejlander

Okay, calm down. You may have no idea how many times a day during the school season students ask their homework questions here rather than do their own work. The reason that comments are made is because it does no good for someone if we do the work for them. There will be questions here where...

When the so-called thumbers wander into this question I am likely to get some more thumbs down but I am going to say it anyway. I get more thumbs down if I say anything resembling the idea that another manufacturer might be almost as good as Nikon or Canon. There are a lot of immature DSLR...

You may not need a DSLR but one would be great for the class. You may be able to get away with a compact that has shutter and aperture priority, but the DSLR will allow you to have so much more control. You can find used DSLRs on craigslist for $200-300. Or you can check B&H and Adorama in...

Since there are no contacts on the hot shoe it must use an old style flash with a cord or something. I have been looking for months but I haven't been able to find any info on this type of flash anywhere. I appreciate any help. Thanks Edwin. I will be on the lookout ;)

If your camera has aperture priority you could set a large aperture (small number-like f/2.8 or f/3.5-whatever are the smaller numbers that your camera is capable of) so that you can use a decent shutter speed and ISO to prevent as much camera shake and noise as possible. Just consider that...

The two are really too similar to contrast them. They can both be shot on location actually. And similar lighting and posing techniques. You should choose one of these two and then compare and contrast it with something very different like landscape photography or documentary photography.

drives, but when looking for a camera? they come here and ask for suggestions. Why is it not common sense to go out and try out, or test drive, the cameras to find the one that you like?

I was scanning through the other answers and I don't think anyone covered one of your questions which was why does the pic look darker when you use those settings. Well, if you were using aperture mode and the ISO wasn't set high enough for the camera to find an appropriate shutter speed to use...

You should actually try to get a kind of apprenticeship with a professional photographer for a couple of years first. Learn the ropes of shooting for a studio and in running a business. Some business classes wouldn't hurt.

Well, there are different levels and types of photography classes. There are general film classes and then there are B&W film classes. Both of these would focus on the processing of images in the darkroom and on both the technical and creative side of photography. Most B&W classes are also...

I don't know how much it costs but you can usually find a local camera store that rents equipment. Google rent camera and add in the name of your closest metropolis.
