My resolution would be to increase it by buying the D400 ! :oD

take more photos of my loved ones!
be more creative, especially for portraits and landscapes

Mine is to get a D3s (or D4), a F5, my 17-35mm repaired (!!!) and a steadier job (or more business)...

Mine are to focus on b&w, build out my new photo blog until it does what I want, and cut the commute out of my life so I have more time to spend shooting every day.

Good luck people!

I will PP my last year's photos :D

I think I'll keep my goals simple:
1. Shoot more
2. Shoot better
3. Learn post

Actually, the message is a good one, shame he is so verbose about it... But THAT'S another topic entirely!

- Create a hardcopy portfolio
- Create a portfolio website
- Score some small jobs
- Spend less money on gear, spend more time taking pics (gear is good, vision is better)

I scored 100% on last year's (none) so I'm kinda thinking 'Hey, if it ain't broke'......

Hey when you win the lotto, remember your friends at NR!!! : )

I'm pretty happy with the shooting aspect of things, so perhaps apart from another body as and when funds allow (my wife wants me to swap mine for a buff 21 year old, but that's another subject entirely - ROFL)...

I'm only partly happy with my 'digital darkroom', so at least I won't have to spend many, many days of sweat and toil in blacked-out or dimly lit chemical filled rooms to get that aspect of my photography better...

So what else is on my list...

I resolve to improve the end result, be it on print or on screen. Guess that means that it's back to sitting in front of the PC screen for days on end :(

Oh yes, and when *I* win the lotto, I will buy one of EVERYTHING from the Nikon camera catalog and just play for a while.... *SIGH* :)

My resolution is to not make any resolutions

I too plan to do a 365 project. Im just going to use my d7000 though.

Like many have said. Try to work outside my comfort zone. Try some new things that may help expand the photographic style I use.
oh and get a d700.
then maybe sell it and buy a d800 when it is released=)

And... Convince the manager/wife that I need the Singh-Ray Vari-ND filter.

My 2011 new years resolution would be

-Buy a Second FX body (D800) and re-buy the 85 1.4 (cancelled my order for me to instantly buy the D800 when released)
-Shoot more, Get more paid jobs
-Advertise myself more. (getting out to high schools and brides to be!)
-Create a website where I can sell my photographs to clients via online proofing
-Create a organize system for backing up my files.
-Shoot more B&W film
-Prepare for a 365 Polaroid a day project for 2012 (MONEYMONEYMONEY!) Hoping TIP makes a constant SX-70 film
-Shoot more :)
-Try to have a job of some sort every week

So, do people want to update us on 2010 resolutions and list any photographic New Year's resolutions for the coming year?

My report:
I bought neither the 24-70 2.8 nor the 70-200 2.8 VRII. My yearning for both may be satisfied this year with a 24-120 f/4 (we'll see, right?).

I had less time for photography than I thought I would and had to turn down a few paid shoots to finish up my degree so I also had less money for photography, especially with a broken car and a move after graduation.

2011 resolution:
Get caught up on photo backups. I got behind on post-processing my personal photos for reasons described above, and I can't bring myself to spend the time burning backup disks until I've got them all edited. I'm almost caught up now by using my time off during the holidays.

Last year I try to Photographic New Year's Resolutions but due to rain my camera as well as Snaps damaged. Now i need a camera which is Water Proof so to preserve this big event

Got 2 out of my 5 :-) and I dont need 1 of them any more so more than 50% done so not too bad. I have half a year to go ! yah. Got my new PC and a new work flow. now to just process the back log and take much more pictures...

Hadnt joined when this thread was up but my goals for THIS year would be

Take more photos
Orgainize the photos i already have (delete unwanted worthless)
Shoot more film and develop that film
Get more wedding and photoshoot jobs
Take self portraits
Buy a 6x6 medium format camera or cheap 4x5

Nope!

I'm taking classes, too busy with those.

A better New Years resolution- get rich so I can afford the gear I want and hire someone to edit my photos for me.

:D

We're halfway through 2010.

Those who made resolutions on this thread....

Have you fulfilled them?

Re-organize my photos on my hard drives.

Buy NO new lenses!!! (lol)

Print and frame about 4-5 of my massive panoramas.

I have not had much play time with bibble V5. The beta for V5 is free to play with. Its stable. Fast compared to V4. It is also able to use the multi core CPU to the fullest so If you are doing some high CPU Transformations it sure does speed though those! I cant really do a good comparison with other software as I dont use aperture or lightroom. But it is nice and easy to sort and manage photos. You can do some interesting things to the pictures like crop, saturation, high/low light recovery, rotate, noise, curves etc... . It doesn't actually do stuff to the pictures so the originals are not changed, which is great. It creates an associated file in the directory... Its really a very nice program. I intend to buy it if it supports my Raw.. well maybe even if it does not support my raw files since I am only going to use it for quick and dirty manipulations.

With regard to raw files . I use the ones that came with linux and gimp. works fine for me so I dont need to wine acr. Integrates well with Gimp.

Curious to get a report on your experiences with bibble, heartyfisher. I Linux host Lightroom through a VirtualBox XP guest.

Will Adobe Camera Raw convert your fuji raw files? It /might/ run through WINE (too lazy to check) but Lightroom and Photoshop won't.
