I thought this would be a good thread for everyone to come in and tell a little about yourself, especially as the forum is just getting started.
My name is Michael Andrew, but I go by Michael The Maven. I have been a Canon shooter for almost 10 years now and I LOVE Canon gear.
I started off primarily as a portrait and wedding photorgapher, after a few years of working as a videographer in the wedding industry in Alabama. For the past 5 years, I have run a free online photography school for beginning Canon shooters and have have produced several Canon training videos, many clips of which can be seen on Youtube. I am intimiately familiar with the following Canon gear:
Canon Rebel XSi
Canon Rebel T1i
Canon Rebel T2i
Canon Rebel T3i
Canon Rebel T4i
Canon 40D
Canon 50D
Canon 60D
Canon 5D
Canon 7D
Canon 5Dii
Canon 5Diii
Canon Speedlite 430, 580 Ex, Exii
Canon Speedlite 600
I look forward to meeting everyone and sharing my knowledge with you if I can help!

Hello
My name is Alain and after I saw the link at Petapixel I came over to post some wish list for bodies and lens
I think it is agood move from Canon to open up a bit more and hope they will consider our inputs. I opened up a Lens wish-list thread by the way, I hope you add your ideas.
I am enjoying a 1D4, after the 1D3, both great cameras. I love them because the AF points are place where I need them to be, and very precise.
I mostly use the 85II, or 200 2. I also use 24II, 24 TS-EII, 16-35II, 100 IS, and 14mm.
I shoot traditionnal Japan, like festivals and geishas etc.

Hi all,
I am a long time Canon user, since I was a young and my dad handed me his AE-1 which I still have and use.
Hope this forum really takes off and we can use each other to improve our skills, professional or hobbiest.
