I've decided that we should have a digital version of the New Old Film Challenge, a monthly challenge on a three into which people can enter an image from their archives instead of needing to be freshly shot.
rules are almost the same as for the film version but slightly tweaked:
- Entries must be taken by you
- Must be taken on a digital camera of some sort (not a digital scan of a film neg)
- Must have been taken and post-processed prior to the start date of the monthly challenge
- Please include details of the camera, lens, and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back, and if linking to Flickr etc please leave exif available to view
- One Entry per person
- Discussion in the discussion thread rather than the Entries thread, please.
- Shoehorning and even Crowbars are positively encouraged!
Entries will generally close two weeks after the challenge starts (usually at 23:59) and voting will usually be open for 5 days after that. Both of these can be varied if appropriate. The winner gets to set the next challenge.
The thread listing previous film challenges is here. That is a useful resource when creating new challenges.
This thread is intended to be an ongoing one, to discuss the current New Old Digital Challenge, instead of having discussion threads for each individual challenge.
The New Old Digital Challenges are intended to celebrate the contents of our back catalogues. The person running the current challenge selects a theme, sets up a new Entries thread with an appropriate title, and including the rules as above. They should link to this discussion thread, and also probably add a link here to the new Entries thread. When the challenge period ends, they should indicate so on both this discussion thread and also the Entries thread (to make it clear should any entries be added after the challenge ended). They should then create a poll on the Entries, usually to run for 5 days and allow 3 votes per voter. Once the poll ends, announce the winner and hand the baton onto them. You don't need to be an entrant to vote, but you must be logged in as a member of Talk Photography.

Some of use are still using old digital cameras, the one I really like is from 2001 .
