based on the rules:

the only limit is the pic size in terms of KB, and not format.

Just to confirm, would you prefer us to shoot with a Nikon camera since this is a Nikon contest? Thanks.

i think while the admin hasn't answered this.

i think the answer should be a resounding "no".

and it's not a "nikon contest". it's sponsored by nikon - there's a huge difference, at least i hope so. :dunno:

Hi

I am a new member (came in here to learn from the others) how to take good pictures for our Drumming Community in Singapore. so I'm definetely not ready for this area ...but I think it is highly commendable that ClubSNAP here had done a great job into getting Nikon to sponsor such for the Members here.

Keep up the great job guys (Admin & Moderators & Committee) ...cheers !



PS: - It's always never easy to get sponsorship and I know it - as how we got it for Drum Xchange Singapore...You guys deserve the credibilty for a job well done - for the Community at large here.
