Welcome to the G-Whiz Weekend! The idea is to have fun, take some
pictures, and capture a few days in the life of a Contax G user. Dates for the
upcoming weekends are listed below:

Note: in order to confuse things further,
G-Whiz weekends will be numbered in accordance with the month; therefore,
there will never be a G-Whiz weekend number 3. |

Get your cameras ready, because you only have two days!
Rules
- All photographs must be taken on either Saturday or Sunday of the weekend
(your local time).
- All photographs must be taken with a Contax G camera. I would assume most
would also use a G-series lens, but I suppose some might use an SLR lens
with an adapter. That's Ok.
- No restrictions on subject matter, film, etc., except my own personal
discretion what makes it onto the site. I live in the United Kingdom, and
there are laws regarding pornography, etc., so no smut please.
- Photographs should be digitized to a resolution no larger than 640x480
pixels and submitted to gwhiz@contaxg.com
in JPEG (.JPG) format. Please submit only one image per weekend.
You've only got one chance, so make it your best one.
- All photographs should be accompanied with your personal copyright
information or a statement that you intend for the picture to be placed in
the public domain. You should also include, if at all possible, information
about lens/film/exposure/flash, and any descriptive information as needed. Please
make sure you indicate the weekend and theme in your email.
- Submissions should be received by the following G-Whiz weekend date; any
submissions received after that will be ignored.
Right now, there's no judge or jury; I will attempt to publish everything that
fits on the website (and expand the website if necessary).
Because we've decided to host G-Whiz weekends on a monthly basis, every other
month will be "open" (you choose the subject), and alternate months
will be "thematic" (a theme is suggested).
