Here’s a cool contest with some really cool folks involved.
Nikon is giving away $100,000 for a 140 second video about your day. The theme is “A Day through Your Lens.” The above video is Rainn Wilson’s hilarious take on the concept.
Of course, Nikon is promoting the capabilities of its D-Movie function on several of its DSLRs like the D300s, D3s, D5000 and D90; however, the contest is open to anyone shooting with any kind of gear. Kudos to Nikon on that.
The winner will be chosen by pioneering photographer and filmmaker Chase Jarvis actor Rainn Wilson from NBC’s The Office, internet queen and actress “iJustine” Ezarik. Chase seems pretty stoked about this.
You can enter at NikonFestival.com.

I recently reviewed the remarkable Rotation 360 camera backpack from Think Tank Photo. It’s time to unload Photography Bay’s review sample to one of you guys.
Sure, it’s slightly used with a 9 mile hike under its belt and a few photowalks around town in order to put it through the paces for our review, but I assure you that it’s got plenty more miles left in it. And, I promise it doesn’t smell bad ;-)
You want it?
