This contest is about gears and accessories which people have MADE THEMSELVES in order to ease certain photography tasks and/or save some money by not having to purchase that kind of gears or accessories. Such items may range from self-made carrying bag for camera gear, a monopod made from a broom handle, or a macro magnifier fashioned from an old FD lens, etc, etc.
A self-made item judged to be the most ingenious, effective and economical will win this contest. Your idea doesn\'t have to be \"big\".......it is often \"little things\" which facilitate our photography, perhaps makes it more effective, and/or save us money.
A few contest rules:
(1) The self-made item submitted must be some sort of hardware, not software.
(2) Only self-made items associated with Canon dSLRs and their compatible lenses shall qualify.
(3) Any items associated with PCs, phones or GPS do not qualify.
(4) Modifications of bought gear/accessories of some substance will also be considered as self-made items.
(5) In order for a contest entry to be considered valid, a picture of the item has to be posted, in addition to its brief description which should allow others to understand what was done and to what purpose.
