1. 80-400mm zoom

To be honest, I have all the other lenses I need and the range is just fine for my requirements.

Although we could argue for various longer options, even if they were made the cost would be out of my range.
Is that f2.8 John? It won't be cheap.

"I wonder, if you reject a large number does it mean that your images get rejected in the same proportion?"

My experience is that the answer is no.

AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

What are these images on PPG for?

So far I seem to de saying no to 95%!

That's not good.
Having just voted on a swag of photos I can only say I'm appalled at the preponderance of uninspired snapshots submitted.

"Sounds like a good idea. I presume the premier collection is what the general public see fist on the site?"

Congratulations Steve, it's a gorgeous shot.
However I'm bound to say it's the person behind the camera, not the equipment, that made the image & won.

I've just had one approved in less than 24 hrs!

You must have been working hard Alan.

Interestingly I've had 2 images rejected first time round but approved quickly when resubmitted (which I did because both photos had done well elsewhere).

"I agree with Axel's observation that there are a lot of 'snapshot' type pictures being uploaded and accepted. I hope they do not lose sight of the quality requirements."

I have been amazed at the "snapshot quality" of so many of the submissions with no awareness of the quality of light or of visual impact. Landscapes are the prime offender.

Hi - I just started again to upload new pictures to the Pentax Photogallery and all are still pending (some since 3.5 weeks). Any experience how long it takes until pictures are accepted or denied (it seems to take even longer now compared to the "old" PPG)?
Thanks and BW
Axel
My experience is a week to 2 weeks. I can't compare it with the old PPG as I didn't upload any images to it.

There seems to be some glitches in the gallery when viewing photos which is frustrating.
