Hello everyone,

well, we've got a solid group of photographers posting just one image per day to their Photo A Day (PAD) blog... you can see the variety and enthusiasm we have going from our first dozen or so photographers who've taken up the challenge so far.

But that's only the beginning! we really want to inspire you to give this a go... if only for a few days to see how it feels - because we've all experienced such personal growth, we know that this will be a great experience for you too

This is our personal invitation for you to join us in the PAD adventure - the more variety we have in the group, the more stimulating and interesting it will be for all of us!

Please post here if you're thinking about doing a PAD... we have lots of people who can help you to take the first steps

Cheers

Brian

» New site section for member-generated gear reviews, impressions, and opinions
Mar 07, 2010 - 10:55 PM - by Amin
Most of us have had the experience of making a difficult gear-buying decision. While there is a role for the detailed technical reviews posted at DPReview, the Imaging Resource, DCRP, and elsewhere, a brief, honest opinion from a trusted source can make all the difference.

When I launched these forums in December, I started a number of "How do you like your..." threads in order to solicit valuable user reviews/impressions/opinions from our members about their gear purchases. Some of those threads are already great resources for prospective buyers, but they are getting harder to find as the site gets more busy.

In order to make it easier for our members to find one another's user reviews, I've set up a new section accessible via the "Reviews" tab at the top of the screen. I've also pre-populated that section with the existing MFT cameras and lenses.

Of course, I couldn't pre-populate the adapted lens section as the possibilities there are virtually endless. Fortunately, it couldn't be easier to add a new lens to our database. Simply click on the link for "Upload Products" and follow the prompts.

I hope some of you will help us get this section going by posting your reviews/impressions/opinions about your MFT gear. Meanwhile, if you see anything there that needs fixing, please let me know in this thread.

» Celebration of our PAD project.
Feb 25, 2010 - 11:31 AM - by Brian Mosley
Hello everyone,

well - what a fantastic week we've had since we started the Photo A Day project...

For my fellow PAD adventurers, how about we post our favourite image so far, and what we've got from the PAD?

Here's my favourite since we started :

E-P2 + ZD 11-22mm f2.8-3.5
1/125s f/6.3 at 22.0mm iso200


I've been completely bowled over by the encouragement and motivation I've felt to produce each new PAD photo - due to the fantastic feedback and comments I've had along the way from my fellow PAD adventurers!

I'm now feeling more alive, more alert and more confident about my photography after only 11 days... I can't imagine how much progress we'll make over the next few weeks - and with all the inspiration I've had looking at the other PADs, I haven't once been short of an idea for my next image!

I know that we're getting new people, at all levels joining us every day... I can feel that we've started something very special and I hope that you'll dive in if you've been thinking about it.

Any questions about the PAD and how to get going - please feel free to ask here

Cheers

Brian

» Olympus at PMA 2010 + Mirrorless E series
Feb 22, 2010 - 5:43 AM - by soundimageplus
Some great pictures of the Olympus stand at PMA 2010 including the 9-18, the amazing underwater housing for the Pens and cameras fitted with a Novoflex adapter and Minolta and Canon lenses.

http://www.dpreview.com/articles/pma2010/Olympus/

Plus the possibility that Olympus is planning to go mirrorless for all models including E-series DSLR's.

» Start a Photo A Day project today...
Feb 15, 2010 - 5:56 PM - by Brian Mosley
Hello everyone,

I've been following Amy Medina's photo a day project, on and off since she began back in July 2009... I was delighted to find a writeup by Amy on Steve Huff's website here - a truly inspiring read!

Take a look, and why not start a PAD project of your own?

I think I'll start mine today... using our cool blog facility.

If you'd like to join me in this exercise, please post a link to your blog here.

Cheers

Brian
