I have a cunning plan - Chris can take his summer holiday in Japan and bring back some 645D's + some FA* 600's

Fair enough James but it might be better to lead from the front - enter first and then try to rally the troops.I was intention to inspire creativity

I would far rather people entered these competitions than sat on the sidelines talking about it
The Fortnightly Competition is not an easy one to enter, since most of us have jobs to go to and very little spare time for whatever reasons.
We have always tried to encourage entries in the past rather than be negative about those who have made the effort, even if we are not inspired by their entries.

There was a four page spread on digital photography in yesterday's Daily Telegraph.
Different types of cameras were 'reviewed' under the headings of "Compact", "DSLR" etc. etc.
Under the large "DSLR" banner, there were just three cameras 'reviewed' - a Leica M9 (obviouusly a great camera but it is not a DSLR) , a full frame Canon and a 'budget' Nikon.
A totally hopeless article.
How do people get paid for writing such material :

Thanks Glyn.
I would have liked some ripe strawberries on the plants, but none are ready yet
No doubt a food magazine would have glued on some strawberries to achieve the right effect

I set up my shot in the sun (rapidly melting subject matter), adjusted the aperture etc. fiddled about with the focus, pressed the shutter and nothing happened - camera as dead as a doornail
Fortunately it was just a flat battery - speedily remedied
