Hi Pentaxians, I was in upstate New York this weekend, at the Eddie Adams workshop. It was an amazingly intense four days, sleeping 3-4 hours per night, listening to some great talks, and shooting in some cases amazing work (I'm a bit disappointed with my own work from the weekend though.) Anyway, I got to meet a few very interesting people, both established photographers and very promising students, no doubt the pulitzer prize winners of the next 5-10 years.
I was the only person in the barn shooting Pentax (and I'm talking about 100 students + ~150 faculty, all photojournalists.) One of the funny moments, the first day, was Eli Reed, who was my group leader, say "what is *that*?!?" when he saw my K10D :) (he was shooting an Olympus 4:3 DSLR though, no doubt provided to him by them.) BTW, being the only Pentax shooter meant also being the only one shooting SD cards--I had to turn in my reader each night along with my cards. Not that that was a big deal. I shot mostly with the 16-45 and the 12-24, plus the FA35 and FA50/1.7. As I said, I'm not very happy with my project pictures, but I kind of like the photos I took at the party after the workshop. All with the 12-24 plus AF360 fired remotely.
