Photographers in Chengdu?

[Charlie]

Any photographers interested in meeting up and taking shots together? We can go to a park or local sight, or just walk around on the street.

I have a Canon 40D and I’ve been shooting for about ten years but recently my equipment has fallen into disuse. If you’re a Canon user also, we can swap lenses or whatever. I have a 50mm prime, a 28-125mm walkaround, and a 12-24mm wide angle lens.

Now that the weather is picking up, I’d like to get back out there! I live in Yulin, south Chengdu.

hi man, I’m a newbie of photographer, nice to see you.

I only have a Canon 500D and 18-55mm

[Charlie]

Ahh yes, the 18-55mm kit lens. I still have my first dSLR, a Canon 300D – that also came with the 18-55.

Are you in Chengdu?

[Korr]

hey, I’m new here and also for photography, but love to learn from others, maybe we can do something in this lovely weather? =)

I have a Canon 50D, 18-135mm

I live in South Chengdu, Linyin street, near the computer street.

Seems like there’s great weather every day recently – I’ll plan to run around the city next Saturday taking photos. Anyone who wants to join is welcome to!

To anyone using a Canon camera, maybe we can exchange lenses – I’d like to try something new.

Meanwhile, the next meeting of the Chengdu Photography club is at the Bookworm on Thursday 5th July at 7.30 pm. We have a wide range of photographic experience and our critique can be particularly useful to those seeking technical advice or inspiration.

The theme for the month is “Free Style” meaning that the critique is open to a maximum of three submissions in ANY subject. As usual the objective is to present images taken within China.

The next meeting of the Chengdu Photography Club is at the Bookworm on this Monday 1st October at 7:30PM. The theme for discussion is ‘panoramic imaging’ so you are welcome to join us and bring no more than 3 examples of your panoramas on a USB drive/stick that you would like to present for review or advice. Meetings are informal and no prior registration is required.
