neo_nights: Nice. But why is it always Canon? :(
@chshooter - yes, I know why. And I would care about having some Pentax or Sony "lenses". Even Olympus or Leica. Anything different from Canon (mostly) and some Nikon.
I know, I know. Market. Canon is most known. Still... why?
:(
Nice. But why is it always Canon? :(
*A LOT* of retouching!!
I wonder if the "light box" made any difference at all
Wow. A Canon camera that did not get an award! Was it a first?

For those trying to make this into something it isn't.
Here is Mr. Slater in his own words. He had NO creative intent. The monkeys played with the camera and randomness ensued.
So all those turning this into "Mr Slater clearly setup the camera in the best manner and directed the monkeys" need to step off the crazy train.
But he left the camera there, on purpose, so the monkeys could play with it, right?
Boky: He should've told everyone right from the beginning that HE pressed the shutter... problem solved.
@Boky - and the picture wouldn't have had the same effect. Because it's not only about the picture, but the story behind it.
How he could've known all of this hell would've happened? Now he (and everyone else) knows.
I'm not blaming the photographer (quite the opposite, I think he's done the right thing), but I've just started wondering: if he just had let that case go, even though he wouldn't get a lot of money via copyrights of that specific picture, he would have continued his life and earned money with his other photographies and wouldn't be broke now. Right?
cosinaphile: what person in his right mind does not already understand that the cell phone, with its lifetime for many users of 12to24 months, is already the closest thing consumers use to a disposable camera
the difference is, of course, a price tag of 649 to 969

yellow stickers are an accessory not a defineing characteristic
i love that its name is screw bar ..... it's the poetry of the universe.... further poetry is provided by the authors who promise:
"now aesthetics waiting and of light leaks is waiting for you "...or ...." stop picking out the good ones, capture the few cherishing moments" the special poetry of poor translation is alway wonderful...

im bubble tea ....suck my balls ....

OMG. ENGRISH.com STIL EXISTS!? Used to go there and have some GOOD laughs. It must be well over a decade since I've last heard about it.
Photo_AK: On July 2018: "It's a tough day for us. We're sorry to inform our valued fans and customers, that after hard work and ... blah, blah, blah ..."
These are my thoughts as well
Tom Goodman: Putting aside the actual images for a moment , this award reminds me of a photographer friend who once said "There is an award for everything."
I have never looked at a photograph I've admired and wondered about the equipment. Never. Nor do I look at a painting and ask myself, "Did the painter use acrylics or oils?" I just don't care. I know some types of equipment make certain kinds of images possible or better, but when an image attracts me I don't care how it was realized.
So many contests carry entry fees which is part of what inspires so many competitions. They are profitable or, at the very least, most if not all of their costs are covered and the resultant advertisement in some cases, the iPhone in this one, is striking.
@Tom @ Woodyz - I think you're both right.
Sometimes you want to just enjoy that piece of art (or food, or anything that gives you pleasure), just "feel" it.
OTOH, there are times, of course, when you are interested in the technical aspect so you can use on your own photography (or paint, or food, or music or whatever).
It really depends on what/when you look at something and how you want to react to it.
Well... I've always wanted to have a Gitzo tripod. Maybe now it's a good time?
Do you think it will come with a smartphone adapter as well?
:p
Let's hope that this Arsenal does justice to its supporters ;)
Dr Blackjack: Nice fun looking gadget!
He called it "gadget" so people will take it as an offense. Don't have to worry about someone saying nice things here!
;P
Inspired Shot: I like it. There's no need to hate it. Of course you can do this manually, but what's wrong with having this tool available?
I think mmx was being sarcastic...
stratplaya: If that camera got Barney a date, then the a9 (by all raving accounts) will get me a permanent mistress.
Ironically, for those who are married, buying a camera such as the A9 (or any other PRO level) may cause a divorce! Hahahaha!
I'm with those who read the entire article just to know more about the date.
C'mon, Barney!!
How come this TBT is not about the Sony A9?
Hahahahaha!
Just teasing you, guys. Actually I don't feel bothered about the amount of attention the A9's been getting. I'm just trolling those who DO feel bothered about it!
:p
(BTW, this Minolta camera is very similar to the Sony T series)
TillmanB: I've been enjoying the throwback Thursday pieces and generally rebuff those who bristle that it's too far off topic, but c'mon. This is about a game that some millennials played in the 90's where instead of shooting the little bastards you're photographing them. Lame.
Don't worry. There's always next week!
I was already in my mid-teens (16) when I played Pokémon Snap. It was one of those simple-yet-addicting games!
The biggest challenge was, of course, to 'capture' Mew!
(IIRC Sony did release a safari themed photography game, maybe for PS3, so they could promote their DSLR cameras)
Only three paragraphs?
C'mon, guys!
You can make a better TBT than that!
