[Daniel Browning]

Is there any other benifit topoints other than qaulifying?

Lots! Improved quality of life, proof of fanboi status, sentimental value...

[Kayaker72]

[DavidEccleston]

Silver, just 12 points (8 for 24-105mm f/4L, and 4 for 85mm f/1.8). Of course I

62, but if I get around to selling two of my lenses, that would bring me down to 46.

Well if it can improve my quality of life it is worth a shot. The fanboi status will be obvious.


With all that I have bought:


150 points is what I have entered with CPS


However I did enter the camera and lenses I gave my brother since I figure that if they break I will be the one shipping them in for warranty.


So adjusted


122 for mine less -4 for one lens that was stolen that I am going to leave on the list in case it shows up....What I have In my possession right now gets me 118 points


28 for my brother

[Dr Croubie]

What, the 50/1.4 counts but the niftyfifty/1.8 doens

[Daniel Browning]

150 points

Wow! Can anyone top that? Perhaps only Bryan C.

[HDNitehawk]

Canon Australia still stick by their 2x 5D+ bodies and 2x L lenses, and "must get primary income from pro photgraphy" for silver, so not even Neuro would get very far here seeing as he's got a day job.

This is the requirement in the USA

"Who qualifies as a professional image maker?



A full-time self-employed individual or an employee of a professional imaging business who plays a direct role in the creation of moving or still images.


I make it because I am a full-time self-employed individual....who makes still images.... :-/ is it supposed to be my primary source of income?





When you apply in the USA, on the application the question is never asked if you meet this requirement.
