The “2011-Photograph-of-the-Year Edition” of the Corner Newsletter is out in inboxes across the world as of a couple of hours ago. If you’re a member of the Corner, it should be in your inbox waiting for you. If you’re not a member of the Corner (you can sign up here), or you somehow missed it, you can, as always, read the newsletter online in the Newsletter Archives here. It definitely has a “Photograph of the Year” vibe to it, but next month I promise it will be back to normal.

Earlier today, shortly after the November 2011 Bling was handed out, like clockwork the Corner Newsletter started showing up in inboxes all across the planet. If you’re a member of the Corner and you’ve elected to receive mail from us (you can change your email preferences here), it should be in your inbox waiting for you to read. If you’re not a member of the Corner (what’s up with that? register here!), or you’ve elected not to receive mail from us , you can still read it online here in the Corner Newsletter Archive.

While you were sound asleep last night, the servers that bring you PhotographyCorner were pumping out thousands and thousands of emails, delivering the October 2011 edition of the Corner newsletter to your inboxes. If you haven’t already, check your inbox and have a read through.

Despite the fact that the Corner server has been a little grumpy over the past couple of days, the September newsletter was sent out late last night. I realize that it’s technically October now, but it’s only October 1st, so it’s not really that late, right? If it didn’t show up in your inbox, you can always read it online here in the Newsletter Archives.

Just a quick note to let you know that the August 2011 Corner Newsletter is being delivered right now (it does take the server a bit to spit out 20,000 emails, you know). If you’re lucky enough, it should be waiting for you in your inbox already. If it’s not there yet, or for some reason you’ve decided not to receive it via email (you can change your email options here), you can always read it online here in the Newsletter Archives.

Just for those of you that follow the Corner Blog, but are for some reason not actually a member of the PhotographyCorner.com forums (or for those of you that are members, but have chosen not to receive the Corner Newsletter), the July 2011 (Volume 8, Issue 7) of the Corner Newsletter has now been posted in the Corner Newsletter Archives for you to browse through - read it in its entirety here: www.photographycorner.com/forum/showthread.php?t=99994.

The newsletter was sponsored by our good friends at PrintedArt.com. PrintedArt was not only the lead sponsor of the 2010 Photograph of the Year contest, but they’ve also sponsored several of our Photograph of the Month contests (providing several members with FANTASTIC LOOKING prints). In addition, they’ve continued to support and invest in the growth of the PhotographyCorner community by advertising in the newsletter and on the site as well (I’m sure you’ve seen their banners around!). The best part about working with PrintedArt, however, is that the product/service they provide is superb (I just received my order of a 43” × 29” canvas from them, in fact - it looks fantastic!). For more information, and to see how good your photographs will look printed on aluminum dibond with acrylic, visit them at www.printedart.com.

Just in time for the long weekend, the June 2011 Corner Newsletter is done and being sent out right now (even with the new server, it still takes a while to send out 20,000 emails, you know). If you’re a member of the Corner and have elected to receive emails, it should be arriving in your inbox shortly. If you’ve elected to not receive the newsletters, or you’re not a member of the Corner, you can read the entire newsletter online here in the “Corner Newsletter Archive”http://www.photographycorner.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=54.

As is the ongoing custom around here it seems, the newsletter just managed to make it out before the end of the month in which it draws its name. It went out earlier this afternoon, and our poor server managed to chug out all 20,000 of them in a couple of hours (see how you can help our server here). So, if you’ve opted in to receiving the newsletter, it should be waiting for you in your inbox. If it didn’t make it, or you enjoy reading it online, you can browse through the May 2011 Corner Newsletter here in the Corner Newsletter Archives.

The newsletter was sponsored by a new sponsor to the Corner: Animoto. I’ve used Animoto in the past, and it’s a service that comes highly recommended by me personally. Animoto Pro is an award-winning new tool for pro photogs that lets you instantly combine your photos and video clips into beautiful, custom videos. See how Animoto Pro can boost your business here.

It came down to the wire again this month - but at least I have a decent excuse (surgery). But, at least in the timezone I'm in, I got the April newsletter out while it was still April. With 5 hours to spare, even. ;) If you're a member of the Corner, it should be waiting for you in your inbox. If for some reason you're not a member or it didn't show up, you can read it online here.

The newsletter was sponsored by one of our favorite sponsors, PrintedArt. If you haven't checked them out, take a minute or two to drop by their site. Without sponsors like PrintedArt, the Corner probably wouldn't even be around, and you definitely wouldn't have a newsletter to read. ;) Now what are you waiting for? Go read the newsletter already - there's important stuff in there!

The little server-critters that send email out from the PhotographyCorner servers are working overtime right now, and if it’s not there already, you should be receiving the March 2011 Corner Newsletter shortly. You can, as always, read the Corner Newsletter online here in the Corner Newsletter Archives (for those of you that either don’t receive email from the Corner, or don’t have a FREE account set up).

The newsletter was again sponsored by our favorite paper providers, Red River Paper. For a limited time, save 40% on Premium Satin Inkjet Paper from Red River Paper. Red River’s UltraPro Satin offers the same quality as the big retail brands and saves you up to 40%. Compare to Epson Premium Luster, Ilford Smooth Pearl, and Canon Photo Paper Plus SemiGloss.

It almost always makes it out on time, but usually at the last minute. Late last night, the February 2011 PhotographyCorner Newsletter made its way out to the masses. If you’re a registered member of the Corner, it should have arrived in your inbox already. If you’re not a member of the Corner, you can read the newsletter online here in the Corner Newsletter Archives.

As has become the trend in recent months, the Corner Newsletter (now in it’s EIGHTH year: 2004-2011) barely makes it out the door before the end of the month. The January 2011 edition is packed full of goodness, though. Photograph of the Year stuff, a bunch of product reviews and great blog posts. If you haven’t been keeping up with the Corner lately, this newsletter will get you caught up in a hurry. If you’re a member of the Corner, it should be waiting for you in your inbox. If you’re not a member (what’s up with that??! - register for FREE here), you can read it online here in the Corner Newsletter Archive.

They mount your printed image with a special adhesive to a double layer of thin aluminum with a PVC core in between. This material guarantees extraordinary stiffness and a very even surface. As an additional protective layer, the image receives a laminated finish to protect it from the elements and from UV damage. Both matte and glossy images can be mounted on aluminum dibond (and the mounted image comes with hangers that allow for the image to hang frameless). Sealing the image with a layer of acrylic gives it sheen and guarantees extraordinary durability. The image is mounted behind an acrylic plate before being glued on the aluminum dibond. In addition to the increased durability, this method gives the images improved depth perception and vibrance. It sounds complicated, but the end result is fantastic. It’s clean, it looks professional, and best of all, it really brings out and enhances each photograph. Could we, as photographers, ask for anything more out of a print?

With less than an hour to spare (at least in my timezone), the December 2010 PhotographyCorner Newsletter is, as I type this, being sent out to all the members of PhotographyCorner. Talk about coming down to the wire. My New Years Resolution? To get the Corner Newsletters out well in advance of the last day of each month. Anyways, if you’re a member of the Corner already, it should be on is way to your inbox right now, if not already there. If you’re not a member (you can become one here for free), you can read it online in the Corner Newsletter Archive here).

The final Corner Newsletter of 2010 was sponsored by Tamron and their AF18-270mm VC Macro Zoom Lens - the EISA Award Winner Best Travel Zoom 2009-2010. The world’s first 15X zoom lens—is truly the perfect all-in-one standard zoom lens. With its vast zoom-range, the new Tamron AF18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC lens enables the user to cover virtually any photographic subject from wide angle to ultra telephoto simply by turning the zoom control. It covers angles of view equivalent to 28mm to 419mm when converted to the 35mm format. This breakthrough lens is equipped with Tamron’s exclusive, proprietary tri-axial Vibration Compensation (VC) anti-shake mechanism that eliminates or substantially reduces the effects of handheld camera shake, letting you take blur-free hand-held pictures at up to four stops slower than usual. As a result, you can enjoy the convenience of handheld photography in virtually any situation, from shooting candid images, to covering sporting events, to event journalism, without worrying about camera shake having an adverse effect on image quality. In combining an amazingly high zoom ratio along with the VC function Tamron has maintained a high priority on its traditional goals of lightness and compactness. The lens is ultra light at just 19.4 oz. and is a mere 3.8” long. As a result the new Tamron AF18-270mm Di II VC delivers all the functionality and performance you expect from the latest Tamron ultra high power zoom, a lens that exemplifies our time-honored concept of “One great lens covering everything from wide angle to telephoto.” This is the ideal standard zoom lens for your camera for stress-free shooting of all subject matter from sunrise to sunset. Shoot hand-held confidently with Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras with smaller APS-C size sensors. And like all Tamron lenses purchased from an authorized Tamron dealer, you get a Tamron 6-Year USA warranty and a $150 mail-in rebate thru 12/31/10.

Have a Happy New Year - see you around the Corner in 2011!!

As seems to have become the standard, the most recent edition of the Corner Newsletter just squeaked out in the month that bares its name. If you’re a member of the PhotographyCorner community, you should have either already read it, or it’s waiting for you in your inbox (we sent it out last night). If you’re not a member of the PhotographyCorner community (register here, it’s FREE), you can still read the entire newsletter online here in the Corner Newsletter Archives.

The newsletter was sponsored by the Tamron SP 70-300mm Di VC USD — Best-in-Class Tele Zoom. In the pursuit to achieve the most outstanding image resolution in the 70-300mm class, Tamron’s 60th Anniversary lens - the SP 70-300mm Di VC USD (Model A005) - uses an advanced optical design that features LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) lens elements that prevent chromatic aberration. As a result, the SP 70-300mm Di VC USD boasts sharper contrast and greater descriptive performance than all others in its class. This is the first Tamron lens to sport USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive), Tamron’s very own ultrasonic auto-focus drive mechanism. This USD mechanism delivers fast focusing, making it a perfect telephoto zoom choice for photographing sports and other fast-moving subjects. The lens also boasts Tamron’s proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilization to assist in hand-held photography, not only at long focal length ranges where blurring is common, but also under low-lit conditions, dramatically enhancing photographic freedom. This combination of best in class image resolution, Ultrasonic Silent Drive and Vibration Compensation is a new achievement of Tamron technology, culminating in the production of a premium 70-300mm telephoto zoom lens. Winner of EISA Best Zoom Lens 2010-2011. Available for full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras in Canon, Nikon and Sony mounts (the latter without VC). Winner of several international awards including the prestigious EISA Award for Best Zoom 2010-2011. $50 rebate thru 12/31/10. Check it out here.

Again left until the last day of the month, the October 2010 Corner Newsletter managed to squeak out just in time. As always, if you’re a member of the PhotographyCorner forums and have elected to receive email from the administrators (me), it should be waiting for you in your inbox. If you’re not a member of the forum (register here!), you can still read the entire newsletter online here (how nice of us, eh?).

As a result, the SP 70-300mm Di VC USD boasts sharper contrast and greater descriptive performance than all others in its class. This is the first Tamron lens to sport USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive), Tamron’s very own ultrasonic auto-focus drive mechanism.

Next month, it is my goal to have the newsletter out before the last day of the month. Think I can do it?

I know I seem to cut it close every month, but there’s nothing like the deadline of a month running out to encourage me to get the newsletter out, right? If you’re a member of PhotographyCorner, you should have the September 2010 Corner Newsletter waiting for you in your inbox. If you haven’t received the newsletter, make sure you’re settings are set up to receive emails from the site in your UserCP. If you’re not a member of the Corner, or if you’ve chosen not to receive email from the Corner, luckily we post a copy of the newsletter online in the Newsletter Archives. Read the newsletter in full here: PhotographyCorner.com Newsletter: Volume 7, Issue 8 - September 2010.

Enjoy the rest of the newsletter.

It’s slowly approaching September… I have a couple of hours left in August (at least in this timezone). By now, you all should have received the August 2010 Corner Newsletter in your inbox. If for whatever reason you didn’t receive it, or have chosen not to receive it, you’re in luck, because you can actually read it online here in the Corner Newsletter Archives. If you don’t already have a FREE account at PhotographyCorner, why the heck not??! Sign up here already!

The newsletter was sponsored by FXhome. Green screen photography is proving increasingly popular as the technology becomes more affordable and accessible. FXhome has specialized in powerful green screen software for Mac and PC for almost a decade, with the new PhotoKey 3 series aimed specifically at photographers. More information can be found here.

The newsletter is full of photography contests, videos, cool blog posts, and even some little encouragement… so what are you waiting for? Grab a cup of coffee and take 10 minutes to read the August edition of the Corner newsletter before we get too far into September.

I know it’s August already, but if you’re a member of the Corner, you should have at least received the July newsletter while it was still July. Maybe you didn’t read it or open it in July, but I did send it out in July. That counts for something, right? For those that may have missed it, don’t subscribe to it, or prefer to read it online, you can read the July 2010 Corner Newsletter here in the Corner Newsletter Archives.

The newsletter was sponsored by Tamron and their new SP AF10-24mm Di II lens, a high performance ultra-wideangle zoom which features an unprecedented 2.4X zoom ratio—the best in its class. This innovative lens is designed for Canon, Nikon, Pentax and Sony DSLRs with APS-C sized sensors and offers a 35mm-equivalent range of 16-37mm in a lightweight and compact design. With this versatile zoom, photographers can capture magnificent vistas and extraordinary close-ups, bold compositions and unique perspectives, creating imagery impossible with a standard wideangle. The advanced optical system features large-aperture, glass-molded aspherical elements, hybrid aspherical elements, and elements made of special low-dispersion glass, all of which combine to deliver high-quality imagery and performance. The lens uses a new optical system designed to confine the changing angles of incidences of light rays reaching the imager within a certain scope over the entire image field from center to periphery, addressing the effects of variances caused by zooming. Peripheral light fall-off that becomes an image-degrading factor in wideangle photography is minimized to ensure high optical quality across the image plane. Newly developed multiple-layer coatings and internal surface coatings to reduce image degradation caused by the reflection of light rays entering the lens front are incorporated. Because close-focusing capability is essential in wideangle photography, Tamron engineered a 9.4” minimum focus distance throughout the zoom range. This capability gives you freedom to create images with an exaggerated perspective at the 10mm ultra-wideangle end and shoot with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:5 at the 24mm setting, the best magnification ratio in its class.

Pretty cool, huh? Now go on and read the rest of the newsletter…

It went out last night, but in case you missed it, don’t subscribe to it, or it ended up in your bulk mail folder, here’s an extra notification for you. Yup, I’m taking about the June 2010 Corner Newsletter. If you received it via email, you’ve no doubt read it by now, but in case you haven’t, you can, of course, read it in full in the Corner Newsletter Archives.

The newsletter is full of great stuff (I’m biased…, but my wife says it’s good, too) like a $70 rebate on a sweet new lens, contest updates, photographer interviews, a bunch of video corners, cool threads in the forum, and even a couple new resources (an article & product review) added to the Corner Resource Center. You can read it all online here… and if you want to receive it in your inbox next month, just make sure you sign up for a free account. Oh, and don’t forget to check out the sponsor of the newsletter, Tamron and their new SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 Di-II VC Zoom Lens.
