PLEASE, NO SPIN-OFF THREADS. RESPECT US TO THAT EXTENT.
What?
Someone has a crappy lens, manual focus and it's old. They're willing to donate this gem to the photographic world to see what people can come up with along its travels from one person to the next. The lens will be This one, donated by TPF member, Derrel.
How?
This person will shoot the first photo of this adventure. Then ship the lens to the first person in line the lens witha an additional $10 in the box with the lens. The $10 will cover shipping of the lens from the second person. The second person will then take the lens on adventures, shoot whatever their heart desires and can be kept for up to, but no longer than 7 days to keep it moving and interesting. At the end of their length, they will put the lens in a box, pay for shipping by use of the original $10 they recieved with the lens, and ship the lens plus an additional $10 in order to restart this cycle. This will continue in this manner until everyone has had their chance with the lens, then it can be shipped back to the original owner, or continue to be shipped around.
When?
Starts Right Now!
PM me if you're interested in being a part of this - it should be fun!
1. Names will be added in this post in the order they are received.
2. Once you receive the lens let me know so I can mark your name as the current holder of the lens.
3. Shoot your photos
4. Arrange shipping with the next person in line.
Rules:
You can keep the lens for up to, but please do not exceed 7 days
Upload a maximum of 5 photos to the pool
You must geotag at least one of the photos submitted to the pool
At least one of the photos must represent the place where you live. These type of photos are the ones that should be geotagged.
Last but not least:
The Photo Forum and it's members are not liable for anything! Should the lens be lost in shipment, broken, misplaced, forgotten, eaten by the dog, sold on eBay, buried, trashed, rolled off the roof of a car, dropped down the stairs, drowned, flushed, or otherwise ruined or gone in any way, shape or form, etc, etc, etc, the game is over unless another lens is put into action to replace it.
Note:
You will most likely need to switch your camera to Manual mode to use this lens. It will work on ALL AF NIKONS ever made from 1986 to 2010... it will not autofocus on the 5 Baby models, but it will meter! And the AF confirm light will light up when she hits focus!
This will be a US only deal. If a member from any other nation/country would like to contribute, you will have to find a copy of this lens to use there, and pass around your country. It has to be the same model, and youre welcome to post the photos in the pool.
