Way to go ! Enjoy and have fun. Are you going to use your own equipment or take advantage of using the Nikon equipment they provide? After you attend this I'll really be picking your brain. :lol:

Not sure why you would use their equipment if you shoot Canon? I will use my own.

I will be taking my own, but that is not because the gear they provide is (shush) nikon (boooo)... In fact I used to own nikon equipment. But I am taking my own that way I can use the techniques i learn at the academy and bring it to my daily shooting. So it is just a convienence... plus its not like im using a rebel or something.

Agree, want to be able to use what I am taught with my own equipment after the academy.

I am sure they will be great but I will hopefully have my 1D Mark IV:D

Congrats to both of you!!! I was hoping to go this year (I've been saying that for the last few years), but yet again no tengo dinero.

Just out of curiosity, did you guys submit the essay part?
