A day at the NEC, Birmingham (Focus on Imaging 2009 and Boat and Caravan Show)
Last Sunday I went to 2 shows at the NEC – Focus on Imaging 2009 and the Boat and Caravan show.
The Outdoor show was just caravans, motorhomes, portable homes, tents, boats, etc. All interesting but nothing I lusted after (except maybe a kayak).
Some of the motor-homes were VERY expensive yet I thought few were of decent quality (i.e. furnishings and layout). I was really surprised at how big the show was and how many motorhomes there were – I didn’t think they were that popular on this small island. I certainly don’t see that many on the roads.
Focus on Imaging was also a big show and there was a lot to see, touch and listen to (e.g. lectures/demos). They even had models modelling for the public to take photos of.
I took photos at both shows (using my Canon 40D) and will upload them here this weekend. I also bought a monitor calibration tool (i1Display 2) which I will try out this weekend on my 2 monitors – before editing my photos!
