PENTAX World SyncSnap -- Event 1 -- October 17th, 2009Our second event will be held on October 17th, 2009 at exactly* 12am midnight GMT.
What is the World SyncSnap? The World SyncSnap is a chance for Pentax
users around the world to snap their shutters in unison, capturing our
images all at the same time. Think of it as the Pentaxium’s little
brother. Where the Pentaxium lasts one entire day, the SyncSnap begins
and ends within the blink of an eye…or, more appropriately, the opening
and closing of a shutter.
How does it work? You’re given the date and time of the SyncSnap for
the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time zone. All you need to do is adjust
the date and time for your time zone, grab your Pentax camera, and snap
your shutter at exactly the right moment, along with the rest of us.
GMT is not adjusted for daylight savings. Use this site to figure out what time it will be in your area with respect to GMT: GMT: Greenwich Mean Time - World Time / Time in every Time Zone
Where do I post my photograph? There is a dedicated event category in our gallery at this URL: User Photo Gallery - Pentax World SyncSnap. When uploading your photo, title it with the following information:
Event number, your username, and the location where the image was captured.
Example: If you captured the image in Philadelphia, PA, USA:
Photo title for October photo: SyncSnap1, DanLoc78, Philadelphia, PA, USA
Make sure you also specify what lens and camera was used in the fields provided. The camera must be a Pentax!
*Try your best to capture your photo at the exact time specified. A few seconds off here or there doesn’t really matter.
