Penistone Camera Club was established in 1967 by a group
of people who had the same interest....Photography.
Since then the club has gone from strength to strength, with a ever
growing membership. The club meets at 7.30pm every Wednesday Evening at
the St Johns Community Centre, which is situated on Church Street
adjacent to Penistone Church in the middle of Penistone, there is also a
large car park. Everybody who turns up at our meetings receive a warm
and friendly greeting.
There are always varied activities going on each week (click on the
diary link). We have various studio lights and props also digital
equipment (including computer, digital projector, camera and A3
printer).
There is no need for you to possess a camera to join as the club has a
spare camera which new members can try out to gain experience, while
they decide to purchase one of their own. It does not matter what type
of photography people want to do i.e. traditional, digital, portrait,
landscape, natural history or still life as there is always someone on
hand to give guidance where necessary.
Also the club runs competitions within the club and with other clubs as
well. The club has outings to various places of interest as well as
guest lecturers to give talks on various subjects.
People can come and look at us and see what we do for 4 weeks and we
don't charge them anything and after that then a charge of two pounds a
week is made along with the yearly subscription of fifteen pounds, what
other entertainment could you get for that.
So come along and join us
