| Tripod Camera Club is a non-profit organization located in Dayton, Ohio. It is designed for any individual - amateur or professional - that has an interest in photography.
The Club was organized in the early 1940's as a successor to a local NCR camera club. Today, we have approximately 90 members and many of our members are among the finest photographers and print-makers in the area.
The Club meets on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month from September to May, with the exception of November and December, when we only meet on the second Tuesday. The first meeting of the month is our competition meeting. At this meeting, you can see head-to-head competition in different categories including Monochrome Prints, Color Prints, Color Slides, Nature Slides and Commercial Prints. Every other month a "special theme" such as "Patterns" is added.
At the second meeting each month a guest speaker presents a program or demonstrates a photographic technique.
Guests are always welcome.
The Club offers a variety of workshops during the season, on various topics such as B&W and Color darkroom techniques, hand-coloring photographs, table-top lighting, mat cutting, digital photography and close-up nature photography. There are also several Club outings ranging from a day to a week at places like the Smoky Mountains National Park and Caesar Creek State Park.
