Calgary Photo Expo Thingy

[F8&Bthere]

Did any of our many Calgary area peeps go to this? If so, what were some of the highlights? What did I miss? Was there any hot sales or promotions on mainstream gear going on? Do tell!

My wallet is drained, I picked up a Wacom tablet. I did score out of the bargain bin a ColorVision Print FX, basically a device for calibrating my own printer profile. Lots of information to digest many good speakers.

my daughter has the tablet and uses it all the time. she quite likes it. If you lose the pen you can get them on Ebay (ask me how I know)

I watched the Wacom tablet demo and it was quite tempting especially with Craig's actions. I also attended the Hahnemule lecture. I was already a convert but nice to get the background and see a print come off one of those large machines. The portrait session was informative and I enjoyed the speaker. Watched the Spyder 3Pro lecture as well.

Ha ha! sold a guy on a Lowepro sling type backpack. (You are welcome Camera Store, lol) and got myself a new tripod. That's about it. Oh yeah, met Greg and saw EJC there as well.

I had my Calgary trip cancelled last minute, so I missed out! I did, however, get to spend the entire weekend fishing, hiking, exploring back country, and snapping some shots.

Greg: which Wacom did you get? I've got a Bamboo, which is OK. Just sold a Intuos4 Large (along with a 27" iMac, and various other bits) to a customer yesterday - looks like a really nice unit!
