    Quick Poll Ideas?

    The current Quick Poll is really old. And I can't come up with anything. Does anyone have any ideas? What would be a good photo-related poll for this community?

    Not so fast! Check the archive before you start posting ideas. There have been lots of polls since 1999.

    Motivation? If your Quick Poll idea gets used, you can pick a photo book from the PhotographyREVIEW.com library

    How about:
    How may photographers carry a laptop computer with their camera equipment or as part of their camera equipment ?

    Re: Quick Poll Ideas?

    I checked the archive, so hope I don't have any duplicates here.

    How many cameras do you have?
    Film.........Digital

    How many DIGITAL cameras do you have?

    Do you own a back up camera?

    How many hours a week/month do you spend using your camera?

    How much money do you spend a year on photography?
    (if this is a duplicate - it's a very interesting question that you may want to ask
    again, especially since so many people use digital now)

    How much time do you spend on PR?

    Which PR Forum do you frequent the most?

    Do you spend more time:
    Actually using your camera ....or
    Editing in PS

    How much time do you spend weekly editing your photos?

    ;)

    Re: Quick Poll Ideas?

    How about :-

    If you were going to win something for posting a review what would be most beneficial to you.

    e.g. 1 a camera bag, 2 a camera lens to suit your camera, 3 a tripod, 4 a monopod, 5 a new colour printer etc etc etc, get an idea what would be most suitable for a photographer as an incentive.

    Prizes. I like that. I could be motivated by prizes easily.

    I really like the last two ideas.

    I spend a lot of time editing photos, both for personal use and business (the new web site, due on line at the end of the month.) I'd be interested to see how much time most people spend on photo editing, or if they spend more time in the digital dark room than actually shooting photographs.

    I don't think this one's been used...

    "If you had the chance to photograph Randy Johnson close up, would you be afraid to?"

    Ok, either you get this, or you don't. New Yorkers, help me out here...

    Is Randy Johnson a Porn Star Steve.

    Hey what happened to your Yahoo link in your profile, I seem to have lost you from my yahoo chat list. Did you get my email I sent you.

    Thar's Funny!

    Peter-
    Randy Johnson is one of the best, if not the best, baseball pitcher currently playing the game. I haven't been paying that much attention since it's the pre-season right now. But I think he just had some altercation with a photographer.

    >>Is Randy Johnson a Porn Star Steve?

    Well, he's a sports star. I don't know anything about his personal hobbies...

    Here's the recent incident I was reffering to:

    >>Hey what happened to your Yahoo link in your profile, I seem to have lost you from my yahoo chat list.

    I have no idea what that is. I don't do "chat", so I'm not sure what the benefit of having me on that list would be...

    >>Did you get my email I sent you.

    Yes indeed. Did you get my holiday one? I mentioned it in the thread about my gallery show, but you haven't replied yet...

    Re: Quick Poll Ideas?

    How about, what type of photography are you most financially successful with? (List types of photography). That might be good in helping new photographers decide what area they want to go into to make money.
