Photo exhibition at SA Museum

Postby DanielA on Sat Apr 07, 2007 10:54 pm

Went in to see the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at the SA Museum today. The $5 entry fee also gets you the ANZANG Nature and Landscape Photographer of the Year Exhibition (they're in the same room).

The exhibition was very good, like last year. Well worth going. Always interesting to see the makes of equipment used.
I was happy to see a couple of Nikon D70s shots along with the usual D2x ones.
The international shots seem to be mostly digital, but the ANZANG entries had lots of film.
You really have to wonder though about an under 10 year old using a D2x and 300mm f/2.8... :shock:

There were a couple of typos I noticed on the plaques. One I liked was the Nikon 12-24mm f/1.4 lens. Anyone know where to get one of those :?:

It should mean 12-24 f 1:4 that is f/4 I believe.

They did have a 28mm f/1.4, its a gem to have, but very expensive to get.

Yep, there were other references that were correct. I knew what they meant. I wonder how many people actually read those details...
