Canon Photo5 Entry 

Okay so it’s kinda sucky and I’m clearly no digital Photoshop artist but it was fun trying to come up with idea’s for the Canon Photo5 competition. I have no delusions of winning but as my flickr pal Lucky says “You gotta be in it to win it”.

Canon Photo 5 Competition 

My mystery box arrived today in the mail for the Photo 5 Canon competition. Whether I’ll get time to get all the shots remains to be seen since my wedding approaches, just under 2 weeks away. There are $50000 worth of prizes and you keep the copyright to your images so it would be insane not to enter.

And yes, $5000 would definitely go to the 5D mkii and a tasty new lens :)

Canon 5D MkII is here! 

21.1 megapixel CMOS sensor, DIGIC 4 processor with 14-bit analog-to-digital conversion, the ability to capture Full HD 1,920 x 1,080 video, 15-point autofocus with 9 selectable AF points, 3-inch Live View LCD offering 4x the pixels of the original 5D, and a 3.9fps burst for unlimited JPEGs or up to 14 RAW images when using a UDMA CF card. Seems like Canon are back in the race after Nikon announced the D90. Don’t think I can afford US$2700 at the end of the November when it goes on sale either!

Full details here.
