Video of the Year: Hands on with the Canon EF 1200 f/5.6L Lens

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Good friends Juan Pons, now of DPExperience, Scott Elowitz of LensCoat and I arranged the shoot of this video early in the year, even before we launched Outdoor Photo Gear.  We kept it under wraps for a few months while OPG was under construction.  We launched our blog with it, and over 24,000 people have viewed it!

A lot has happened since we shot this video.  Juan has launched DPExperience with our pal Rick Sammon (and me as the "gear guru") and Scott has introduced many new LensCoat products.

Outdoor Photo Gear has had a banner year, beyond all of our expectations.  We're still at work–more products and more website features are on the way!

Thanks to all of you, and we wish you a fabulous 2010!

Ted_headshotTed Stark is the winner of our Canon 5D Mark II giveaway contest.  Thanks to Scott Bourne, this contest was “re-tweeeted” around the world!

We couldn’t have a nicer guy for a winner:

Theodore A. Stark is a Colorado native and an avid nature, wildlife, and architectural photographer. He also does portraiture work, focusing in the candid style.

Stark has been involved with photography since 2001 when he experienced a life changing event that, literally, changed his perspective on the world around. Add to that Stark is a Type I Diabetic and, as he puts it, “… I am aware that I -very well- may lose my vision at some point, so I should share what I can see while I still can.”

Stark is a graduate of the University of Arizona with a degree in Management Information Systems. He and his wife, Erin, currently live in Centennial, Colorado.
