Well logically yes, since the whole point of the competition is that entrants have to take the photo specifically for the competition rather than just trawling the archives

So I guess everyone moves up a place.

Martin,
You give link to your work...but why there isnt anything in the competition ???

Do not tell that you are afraid of judging!
Martin's track record in winning these competitions is somewhat impressive

Thanks for the reassurance Vikram and Amin, glad to know I wasn't missing out after all!
No pouch of any sort with the DA 12-24 but you get really nice leather one with the DA 35 LTD that costs vastly less

There appears to be three categories of entry in this competition :-

- Shots of a moving 'object' from a moving 'object' - of which there only appears to be two of this type.

- Panned shots of a moving 'object'.

- More straightforward 'captured' shots of a moving 'object'.

I agree with Prieni that the impression of the finished product on the viewer is what matters.

Congratulations on both counts, particularly good news about your contract I guess :

I had decided that with all these price increases, I would stop buying lenses but lack of willpower means that I have succumbed and just bought the DA 35 Macro Limited from SRS @ the old price
The lens was ordered yesterday lunch time and arrive today at 10.30am - the usual brilliant service from SRS

Try a search on price increases for Nikon lenses and you will see exactly the same thing - great anguish from Nikon users and the issue of the yen versus the dollar / pound / euro.

I also found someone on a Canon forum complaining about 50% increases on their lenses in the past year

Enjoy your new lens!

It's funny, I am seriously thinking of selling mine. I was so pleased to get one but I find I hardly ever use it.
Just leave it on the camera for a month and see how much you can take with it.

It is the standard attachment on my K20.
