Not happy with the estimates Im getting. Still looking for someone who can do a small run of less than 100 but Id take 100 if the price is right. Im gonna post some sample designs here in the next few weeks to get everyones input and opinions.

Steve, how you coming on those patches?

Steve Roth, I would not get away with publishing any graphic shots of the public. These would be for my fire district use only, we have pretty strict rules about trying to respect the privacy of individuals involved. I have to blank out faces and am very careful about trying to avoid showing most injuries, if any. Even license plate numbers of all involved vehicles are blanked out.
Before images are sent to local newspapers they are carefully selected for content.

Hi all. Just came across this group. Great pics! I enjoy taking pics and my bf has asked me to be the unofficial photographer for his department. Just starting out so I don't really have anything to post yet. I do look forward to sharing.

Nikon D90 ROCKS...I have two of them, one always has the 18-200 on, and the other is sporting my 70-300.

The Nikon 18-200mm VR is a great lens, not only for what we do, also a great everyday walk about lens, it's on my D90 all the time. I always take both Nikons to training sessions with a wide angle lens on the D2X. The D90 goes on all calls. It has a much better low light performance at higher
ISO's. I found my 18-200 on Ebay, almost new, got a great deal. Love it.

Thanks for the input, I'm using similar equipment, a Nikon D2H. I was thinking about going with a wide angle, say an 18-70mm but the long

Yeah, I'm thinking this is pretty much a no-go at the moment, some friends and I were thinking about buying an old set of bunker, fashioning a case filled with dry ice. I am looking into helmet cams right now.

How about an underwater container for your camera? They seem to be available for most models but can be pricy. Might protect the camera long enough to get the shots you want. OR you might try the new helmet cams...they are designed to get inside.

OOO I dont know about that. I certainly wouldnt take an expensive SLR in. Maybe a cheaper point & shoot. My worry is the sudden increase in temps might cause condensation inside that would ruin the camera or image sensor.
