    Press Pass. Festivals. Help!

    I usually shoot a couple smaller festivals every year and haven't really had a brief as to how many shots they want from me. I just send a link to my site and tell them to choose if there are any they want for publicity. You could ask once you're on site but the PR people/organisers prob...

    Opinions wanted on Jacobs Pre Owned

    Hello, I am interested to know if anyone has bought pre-owned from Jacobs and their experiences if returning if faulty or not as description etc. I am looking for a used body (ooo-eeer) but have been told there's obvious signs of wear and tear so that makes me think about shutter count...

    Backpack style camera bag?

    Tamrac Expedition Range is quite good. I have the Expedition 5. Held my 40D with 70-200 F4L attached, Tamron 28-75, Nifty, and 350D with Kit lens attached. Room for my flash also when I got that. Tripod straps on the outside, they are useable but not fantastic. Plenty of pockets for batteries...

    Images for Newspapers

    could just give them (the nationals) a call. You'll know the submission requirements and they'll tell you if they are sending anyone to the event at the same time.

    Images for Newspapers

    have it around 300dpi and a large file.. around 6meg if you can i would say. They may want to enlarge it so bigger the better is the policy at our local rag. May be different for Nationals though. you gonna submit direct or through one of the photo agencies like Mr Paparazzi or Scoopt?

    Yashica T4

    Do you have the T4 or T4 super (T5) I have the T3Super - recently bought second hand. Not had much of a chance to use it but will be in the next few days. T4 is still a highly regarded camera by all accounts. Terry Richardson is famous for using one on his shoots.

    Made it in to the local paper?

    Thats probably more common place than you think. Newspapers can be theiving toerags who will get all they can for free. If you hadn't have followed that up, no doubt your image would be used again and again. I have heard the excuse that if you submit an image to the press, you are allowing it to...

    Made it in to the local paper?

    If there is that facility and you have access, thats great! Save loads of time but i am assuming that most people would just be emailing shots in - it might be worth enquiring though if there is the FTP upload facility in place; good thinking that man!:thumbs: Ours doesn't :( AFIAK Opening...
