This is the official moderator nomination thread for Digital and Video Cameras.

We will compile a list of nominees through Monday night. Voting on nominees will take place in this thread Tuesday through Thursday. The candidate with the most votes will have the opportunity to become a moderator for this and one other secondary non-social forum of their choosing.

Either before or after the vote, a candidate can withdraw his or her name from consideration. In the event that the candidate with the most votes withdraws his or her name, the candidate with the next most votes will be extended the opportunity, and so on.

AnandTech resevers the right to veto nominations at our discretion. We will do our best to allow you to pick the candidates you feel best suit the needs of your forum, but we won't allow members who can't follow guidelines to be put in a position to enforce them on others.

We will keep a list of nominees in this thread. If a nominee has been vetoed or has withdrawn their name from consideration, a note will be made next to their name. This will be done to prevent multiple posts nominating the same member. If the member you want to moderate this forum is already on the list, please don't post.

Please only post the name of the nominee in your replies. Please make sure it is spelled correctly before posting.

My only "problem" is that I speak my mind and don't care what other people may think :p Some people like to have the truth swept under a rug, but oh well :D

How long will voting last? The OP originally says Tuesday through Thursday, but voting never got started until Wednesday, so is it running to Friday... sometime?

Hello Everyone,

A friend(Juno) of mine from school nominated me to be the moderator of this forum. He's an industrial design major and I'm an Advertising Photography major at RIT. I haven't spent much time in the digital and video cameras section of the forum, however if you guys vote for me I am willing to devote more of my time on this part of the forum instead of Off-Topic.

I can definitely be an asset to this section of the forum in regards to any photographic questions, some gear, but I'm more interested in how an image is captured. I'm not too big into consumer level gear, as I mostly use Medium and Large format(film and digital). I also personally shoot a Leica M6, so I'm not too big into all the new digital P&S's. Can't go wrong with the Canon A and SD series though. The Canon SD200 followed by the Canon A95 got me into studying photography at college. I have pretty good experience with prosumer level DSLRS as I work at the school equipment cage and get to be around pretty much every single piece of photographic equipment ever made.

I should be able to provide good dialogue on any technical or "artistic" questions in regards to photography. I've been a member on AT for several years, and I usually take posts outside of Off-Topic more seriously. :p.

Many people have PM'd me questions in regards to photography before and I believed I've helped them out fairly well.

may light be with you,
Dave

I was saving my vote until the end just in case, so I wouldn't be without a vote :D. But now I can use it on someone else. :p
