Some large pictures of the Valiant panel at LBCC
Just a week before LBCC, I found out that Valiant was back. I didn't do much research before going to LBCC and was surprised to see Valiant there. They were giving out some Archer & Armstrong #1 Golds, and I was able to get one! All around a great panel with a lot of great questions coming from the fans. This was before I discovered ValiantFans.com and OTV podcast.
I have a small blog post with pictures here: http://www.sunpech.com/2012/11/long-bea ... -2012.html

For any photogs out there, I used a Canon 5DM3 with my 24-105 f/4 L lens.

I don't know what that is, but those are some nice pictures!spong107 wrote:

There were a handful of us (board members) there. We'll have to meet up at the next con.
Welcome to the board.

Those turned out good. The lighting at conventions can be less than desirable. I use a Nikon D60. I won't be giving it up anytime soon, but how do you like Canon? (photograph geek alert)

I really enjoy my Canon gear. Not to say that I'm pro Canon and anti Nikon. I think Nikon is great too and if I had started using Nikon a few years ago, I would stick to using them. But since I started with Canon, I like them and and continue to stick with them. I have a few other lenses too which I use at comic cons and cosplay events: the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 IS L II and the Canon 50mm f/1.4. The former for those panels where I know I can't get up close and the latter, the 'nifty fifty', for some close ups or for individuals or pairs-- has a pretty nice bokeh effect.pixierosa wrote:spong107 wrote:

I don't own any Nikon gear, yet.

Thanks! In SoCal I try to attend as many cons and shows as I can. Now I have more reason to as I'm trying to complete my 'classic' Valiant collection by digging through some old comic bins.Blood of Heroes wrote:I don't know what that is, but those are some nice pictures!spong107 wrote:

Hey Bro, I have over a long box of Valiants that I took to the last small con I set up at. I have them priced at a buck. please feel free to send me your list to see if I have any of them. I have a bunch of the other not $1 Valiant books also.
