At "Nikon College", courses are updated every three months and held in seven cities across Japan, catering to various needs such as "I bought a camera but can't take photos as I want", "I want to take photos like my favorite creators", and "I want to challenge myself to create works".

For the July-September term, we offer many courses that can be enjoyed comfortably even in summer, from studio portrait photography and indoor classes at cafes to shooting during the cooler evening hours.

Additionally, starting from the July-September term, we will launch a service that grants "Nikon Direct Points" according to the course fee. This is a convenient service that allows you to continue learning while earning points. We look forward to your applications.

[Highlights from July-September Courses]

<Creating Works from Summer to Early Autumn>

From summer to early autumn, you can encounter a variety of seasonal subjects: brilliant landscapes under blue skies, sparkling watersides, fireworks, summer festivals, and dramatic scenes from dusk to night. As early autumn approaches, soft light and cool air add to the photographic expression. Nikon College offers evening-to-night shooting practice, studio portraits, and indoor classes at cafes, supporting both beginners and those seeking deeper expression in creating season-rich works.
