I want a contest theme of "greatest fear" where you shoot an image of whatever scares you the most. I'll never win one of these damn things, so I hope someone else goes with that theme.

M_Six · 09-02-2011, 01:26 AM

Cool. Pushed the limits of my 20 second attention span, but cool.

UdubBadger · 09-02-2011, 01:27 AM

Just wanted to post an update to this. I received the original receipt and sent the lens to Tokina for evaluation. I called them yesterday to check on the status and they said they received the lens on the 8/31, repaired the autofocus motor, and shipped it out on 9/1. I should have it back on Thursday. Repair was covered under warranty.

Also, using my wife's education discount, I just picked up Adobe Lightroom 3 for $59! I'm pretty excited to give it a try. I've been using Bridge and CS5 to manage/post-process all of my images, which I've aways found somewhat cumbersome.

Weebl · 09-03-2011, 10:46 PM

I got ripped off by Adobe, I think mine was $99

I purchased mine through Amazon.

M_Six · 09-03-2011, 11:21 PM

Yeah, $59 is a very good price. The student discount at our school is $82 for LR3.

Chewy734 · 09-03-2011, 11:25 PM

LR3 for $59.99 for students and teachers

UdubBadger · 09-03-2011, 11:31 PM

whaaaaaaaaa... my student price was $99

Weebl · 09-04-2011, 12:22 AM

You must have purchased it when it came out like me. I guess now they give a bigger discount.
I bought both LR3 and CS5 at the same time.

remmib · 09-04-2011, 07:18 AM

Have you guys watched the World Track and Field Championships in Daegu, South Korea?

Always lots of photographers at these events, and I noticed that non of them used flashes anymore?

I guess they just crank the ISO.

UdubBadger · 09-05-2011, 12:02 AM
