    I saw the ads for that on tv the other day, but totally didn't check what time it was actually on, is it wednesday night or something?
    I'll try watch the next one if i can, it certainly sounded interesting (and should provide some good gear-porn too)
    An awful lot of electrons were terribly inconvenienced in the making of this post.

    was interesting, and surprising how good some photos were in both episodes for people not familiar with the camera's they were using.
    look forward to the next episode.

    Not much for gear porn there.. but did have me googling hasselblad

    I guess I could tattoo my 500mm on my leg. But then what do you have to do in years to come when you upgrade your lens? Tattoo regret.

    That guy missed his opportunity to win when he didn't realize he was standing on the best subject he had seen all day, the bridge by the waterfall.

    Cover up get the artist to change the 5 to a 6 and the I to II then later III... of course placement of such a lens could be a bit awkward

    The II version of the 500mm is a different color white. The artist would have to redo the whole thing.
    I think placing it on the lower part of my leg would fit nicely, provided the hood is left off.

    Yes, funny tattoes aside, that's what I find most interesting. The things the candidates see or don't, and the shots they choose and which ones not. Looking at their portfolios is also interesting for an entry level shooter like me

    On the landscape show, the gal that got the top of the mountain I thought right off had the best spot. It had a very diverse enviroment. She forgets her second lens, her lens cap and hood. She walks around with a camera she seemed to know nothing about and just randomly walks around and take pictures. She won .....

    This confirms what Missy MWAC has been saying in her videos. Turn your camera to "P" for professional, and you to can be a rock star professional photographer.

    I think the jury read too much into that picture. I found it quite boring
