This is much better. Canon as sponsor must require insisting all registrants to shoot in the parade route a recent receipt (within the Sinulog year) of Canon camera purchase. All other brands stay at signified grandstands along the route.

Mag-ilog ang mga camera brands ani Bro kung kinsay maka-sponsor nya ang makadaug raba ang Samsung ... hehe ... padaplin ang Nikon ug Canon

[tattee]

Different year, same old same old complains! Move on na, mura mo ug sirang plaka cge ug reklamo. Survival of the fittest na ang Sinulog photo contest, if dili ninyo kaya ayaw pagtuga-tuga ug apil. It's a photo contest with cash prizes involved, expect it to be a jungle out there

It doesn't mean ma wad-an nag etiquette ky tungod naay contest..

[Hat Trick]

mao ni atbang sa crown regency, di pa na mao kay daghan pa sad kayu nagtapok didto duol mcdo haha..

[hayden]

so maabot ang point na magsubay nalang nya ati to get a good spot....mag-bouncer nalang ta, di nalang mo-shoot ug photos? I'm sorry but this is lazy thinking. Wa mo ka-appreciate sa desire sa mga taw na ma-organize ug tarong ang event?

Yes naabot ang point on my case nga I got feed up with those "so called changes" that they're going to implement para mas "ma-organize" ang photo contest over the years. Ang na-usab ra jud ky ang registration prize. And no it's not lazy thinking, it's what grown ups called realization.

Great photographers rise through adversities on those conditions to find that "perfect shot", while others yes you're right complain the whole day behind the keyboard for screwing up

It doesn't mean ma wad-an nag etiquette ky tungod naay contest..

Etiquette is there dili lang pareha ug etiquette guidelines gi-follow ang mga participants sa sinulog

Hi everyone! Me and two other friends joined the photo contest last year and this year.

First of all, we are not Photographers from Canon. We have Nikon.
We picked the area near the judges station somewhere in Iglesia ni Cristo. There were only a few photographers there, less than 10 or 10 the most when the carousel started moving . Its a perfect area to shoot the Dancing Dancers I'd say it was a give and take with the rest of the photographers that i brushed elbows with. And i would still like to further say that discipline and respect is there especially when a flock of photographers came in to that area.

CROWD CONTROL was way bad. It got worst after lunch. But we still gave way to the non registered photographers who braved in, just to get near the contingents because after all, it is SINULOG. What got most into our nerves is that one officer who's suppose to be part of the crowd control, he was in uniform but since he got his dslr hanging on his neck...i bet, he forgot his responsibilities. You just gave a wrong impression to us...tsk tsk tsk

Around 2pm, we decided to move to fuente since we didn't like the crowd control but its triple worst there and the number of photographers were tripled too. hehehe I understand the sentiments of those who kinda hated the people wearing the red canon shirt, our apologies. I also hope you hear our side, in order for us to capture great shots…we need to be on a greater position to do that. We are not only competing with other photographers. We are also competing with non registered photographers (there’s a lot of them). It’s just easy to pin point us because we are recognizable.

What should be focused is to create a system that will make things much smoother next time and that goes out to the SFI because they have the power to do that and to simply eliminate those who can’t follow their rules. Because only through this can we strain out the less passionate about the contest. I bet a lot noticed that there’s a lot as well who are wearing the red shirts but don’t have camera’s, they just want to get inside the parade. Talk about money making…tsk tsk…Sinulog 2011 is still the best for me, less chaotic than this year.


Let us not limit our understanding with what our eyes can easily see and let us not settle for band aid solutions. Just my 25 cents! Pit Senyor everyone! and congrats in advance to the Winners!

True. But somehow it's organized chaos, by allowing so many people inside wearing red tees and IDs who think they can do anything.

And this is the forum, right? And it's nice to be able to talk about things to make them better. I'm, sorry nga na-fed up naka. Ako sad, actually. Pero as phatwell83 said...kung magkahiusa pa lang unta. It is this mentality of ija-ija ang nakapaingon nga magilog sa pwesto ang photogs and violate the rules. Maypa way registration ug ID if sundon ta na na principle?

If the current state of things is ok with you...imo sad na.
