Anyone going this year... thinking it's probably not worth the effort

Why cause your going would I definitely not be going, do we have beef ?

Nah I asked as I didn't know if I missed a thread, and there was going to be a big BGAFD meet there... which would of interested me, always good to put a face to a screen name or two...

I been to a lot of shows of various kinds... and usually they are a disapointment... it's very rare to find models at these events in my opinion... and as I am not looking to buy any equipment at the moment, I dont really see much reason to attend...

But I guess I might venture down... it's a day out of the office if nothing else... Not sure what day... would of thought tomorrow is mega busy, so maybe one of the more quite week days

Nothing tells you more that this business is fractured than when all the different groups (or cliques if you prefer) meet at different events than pool to the one event that matters to meet all

I wouldve thought the recent Broadcast Video Expo wouldve been most photographers thing as all the leading DSLR manufacturers and software creators were there at the Excel and it was huge.

Newbies to this forum take note.....

1)OEJ always tells it like it is..
2)Nearly knows everything..
3)and is often hilarious....

Well worth following for the humour alone!cigar!

Got to be honest OEJ I didn't know about the other one... guess I aint got my ear close enough to the ground

I only really think of a few through out the year, well certainly in this country anyways... and Focus on Imagining (along with Erotica) is one of them...

Alas over the years I seen less and less reason to go... it's the same to be fair with the big industry shows in the US, like Internext... when I first went to that it was amazing, last couple of times a big let down

As I said sure if I do go it will be a bit impromtu (is that how you spell it ?) Will see what I have on Monday and Wednesday (as playing Golf Tuesday) ! What a life us pornographers lead lol !

"Porntographer".

Is that a word?

If not, I hereby invent it.

As OEJ says, there was just about every DSLR on show, with all the whistles and bells. Without wishing to say 'we told you so', but a couple of us did post about BVE over the past few weeks. Make a note about next years show.

I will indeed make a note... however to be fair I dont come on here enough to see every post... epic FAIL by me I guess
