Dreaming To Be A Famous Photographer

[the GURU]

current D60 have 18-55 zoom lens kit that is already VR (vibration reduction) & the price range is about P25-26t in hidalgo

 

the only edge of D60 over D40X is EXPEED image processing & dust reduction

 

D40 is 6MP, smaller to 10MP of D60 & D40X

 

 

bro... im also using my d60 as a back up cam to my d300... i cant say anything negative against the d60 bec it has served me well before i upgraded... 10mp is far than enough... u can even have a tarpoline printed w/ the use of ur d60 pix and it will stlll deliver you great results

Photojournalists and Photo Enthusiasts invited to join Photo Contest on Climate Change

The Delegation of the European Commission to the Philippines, together with the Philippine Center for Photojournalism, Inc, enjoins all photojournalists and photo enthusiasts to submit entries for a photo contest on the theme of "Climate Change".

Ambassador Alistair MacDonald, Head of Delegation of the European Commission to the Philippines said that the photo contest is being launched in line with the European Union's commitment to address the global challenge of climate change.

The European Union has long been in the lead in international efforts to cope with climate change and global warming. Ambassador MacDonald said that this photo contest aims to help draw public attention to the challenge of climate change, and to the need for global and local action to address this issue, and to protect the futures of generations to come.

Mr. Jimmy Domingo, Project Manager, The Philippine Center for Photojournalism, Inc. said that the Center is pleased to collaborate with the Delegation of the European Commission to the Philippines as the contest is a good opportunity to harness the talents and skills of photojournalists and enthusiasts, to professionalise the industry and, at the same time, to encourage photojournalists and enthusiasts to use the power of the images to combat climate change.

An exhibition of the winning and outstanding photographs is foreseen to be held in universities and malls such as The Podium and The Block. The contest is being supported by JT Photoworld and Kodak/Tech Trends Corporation.

An online version of the exhibition will also be uploaded to the websites of the sponsoring organizations.

The competition is open to all Filipino (a citizenship verification system should be made or should be in the entry form) photojournalists and photography enthusiasts except for staff of the Delegation of the European Commission to the Philippines.

Photographs, published or unpublished, taken in the Philippines from June 2007 to November 2008 covering the theme "Climate Change in the Philippines" (causes, consequences and responses to Climate Change) are eligible as entries.

A maximum of ten (10) standalone single photos may be submitted by a participant. In addition, participants may submit up a maximum of five (5) photo stories comprising 5-12 images per photo story. All images in the photo stories will also be considered as standalone photo entries. Entries should be taken with any camera using at least 135 mm film and/or digital camera with at least four (4) megapixel in size and set at the largest image capture mode.

Entries taken with a film camera must be digitized and all entries must be saved in a compact disk recordable (CDR) for submission.

The Board of Judges will be composed of respected photojournalists/artists as well as officials from the Delegation of the European Commission to the Philippines, Philippine Center for Photojournalism, Inc. and partners.

General criteria for judging the single photos will be: Relevance to the topic and theme – 50%; Technical excellence – 25%; and, Visual perception and creativity – 25%. The photo stories will be evaluated on their strength in terms of the flow and cohesiveness of the included single images arranged as a visual narrative.

All entries must be submitted on or before 12 noon on 6 November, or postmarked not later than 3 November 2008, to either of the following:
