We have 3 types of true Macro lenses for testing. :thumbsup:
As soon as we have gathered, we will be divided into 4 groups based on the 4 themes. Each group is given 2.5 hours to shoot. We will end the shoot at 1030 hours. After which, each individual will choose the ONE best photo for each theme to download for selection for the best photo for each theme for the day.
The grand closing would be the 'Lens Testing' for all the lenses available for the day. We hope to end the whole session before 1300 hours.
Remember to bring your tripod and cable release if you want to do a serious testing.
To save time, we will shoot each lens on the same subject at different apertures listed below.

Ok for the contest. I would like to sponsor some prizes.
For the best of each category.
I will give away a Canon Powershot Bag Pack or a Canon Photo Vest, you can choose either 1.
The winner of the categories, submit your winning picture (CD ROM or memory card) to me at the Canon Digital Lab in the original picture size on Sunday or after Sunday onwards.
For the film shooters. We'll think of another way to "reward" you in another event. :dunno:
Some rules...
1. EXIF data must be in the picture file.
2. The date of photo taken must be 14 May 2005 between 0800hrs to 1030hrs.
3. Failing above 1 and 2. You are disqualified and the prize will snowball to the next event. :sticktong
3. If the prize is not claimed by end of the next event organised by the CanonGraphers it will snow ball to the the next event.
4. Any disputes will be settled in the next CanonGraphers General meeting in July. :sweat:
