Dear readers!
First, let me thank you for all your help. You sent me a huge ammount of interesting news, rumors and links! Expect me to post a lot more rumors soon!
I will work 24 hours per day until the Sony announcement on August 24. Ok, let’s make 20 hours per day…. minus 3-4 hours sleep here and there 🙂
So keep following us…also this weekend!
There is also one more way to help me:
Because of the many visits on SonyAlphaRumors we are currently upgrading our bandwitch capacity and server database performance. It will help me to avoid slow loading pages and/or server crashes. It’s a major cost ($150-$200) for me so feel free to help me if you can and want!
There are mainly two ways to do that:
1) Use the shopping links on the top of the page (inside the camera database). If you want to buy a camera, lens, books or other stuff just start your shopping by clicking the shop name. Once you land on the relative product page you can buy whatever you want (even if it is not the product link you selected to enter the shop) and I will get a small commission from it (usually 1-4%). So if you buy a book with $10 value I will receive 0.4 cent.
2) You can also support my bandwitch costs making a donation. Just click on the button. Donation between $1-$5 are welcome. If you donate more I will pay you a beer when I meet you next time 😉
I hope we can have some exciting time together!
Many Thanks!
Andrea

You could just have a meet up in NYC and charge $499 a person, $399 for early registration, limit it to ONLY 20 people, don’t go as an instructor though, just as a shooting buddy. Buy them lunch, I mean you’ll be able to afford it cause at even the reduced $399×20=$7980, subtract lunch for 20 people you should still have at least $7,000 left. I’d hold it from 9am to 9pm, that way it’s a 12 hour day $7,000/12=$583.33 an hour. Of course you’ll have other cost, such as possible plane ticket, that is assuming you don’t already have business in NY at the same time or you are already in NY, in the end you’ll walk away with at least $6000, that should cover it.
oh wait, Steve Huff already beat you to that idea.
Mike, that’s amazing! Are people paying just for the privilege of talking to him? What’s included? It must be an amazing lunch he has planned. What do you think he’d do if I just turned up and walked around alongside him?
I think he’s going to show everyone how to take pictures of Mac&Cheese boxes and hoping he shows people how to take photos while driving in a car.
I think if you showed up without paying he’d just talk to you, cause you’d probably be the only one there.
Nothing against Mr. Huff, but come on, does he truly believe he’s worth that kind of money? Even if he splits the money between him a two other “guest” non instructors, seems a lot for someone who blogs aimlessly and randomly.
This is the same guy who had to sell his M9 due to financial reasons and used his blog to sell his old iphone, oh wait a minute here… he should walk away with between $6000 and $7000, someones looking to buy his M9 back…
So what there will be Leica gear there, I am positive you can walk into any Leica dealer and see Leica gear for FREE.
I can go see Joe McNally for $79 http://www.kelbytraining.com/product.html&id=493 or better yet go to Photoshop World in Vegas for $599 https://photoshopworld.com/register/
I’ve seen others try to pull something similar off, it’s laughable.
Too many sorry no talent people trying to make a buck on photography, I feel sorry for any sucker that sends money to him or the others out there.
I just did my deed to add the economy and bought a new sigma 70-200 OS via the link on your page:-)
Cheers, Josh
Awesome Aieou! Enjoy the lens. Vists me in belgium and I will send serve you a Westmalle 😉

@mike: srsly?
Have you ever thought about getting in touch with Flattr for your blog here? I bet good rumours would get “flattred” amlot 🙂
Yea! Flattr please! And you’ll have a donation from me every month! 🙂
It’s a great thing, pity so few sites actually use it, when all you need is to wait for invitation, like… 1 day for me. Go for it Admin!
