Photocamp 1: Common Questions

Can I bring my camera?

Of course!

We encourage everyone to bring a camera and to take pictures on the day. If you upload any pictures you take to the popular sharing websites we'll ask that you add a conference specific tag so that others can find your images. We'll even have a slideshow of all the images on this website after the event!

Do I have to give a presentation?

No.

We'd like you to at least consider giving one though! As it's our first PhotoCamp in Edinburgh we'd like to think that all the attendees will be considerate and understanding of those willing to give presentations - it's certainly the norm at other such conferences. With that in mind, you shouldn't be too nervous about giving a short presentation on a subject that interests you.

It's a great opportunity to engage with an audience around a subject of your choosing!

I want to bring a presentation on my laptop. Can I?

Of course! There will be AV facilities and so as long as your laptop can connect to the system using a VGA cable (if you're using a Mac remember and bring your little lead) then all will be well. It would be worth checking before you attend how you tell your laptop to use the external VGA port as some laptops make it harder than others!

I'm on the waitlist, what do I do now?

Nothing! Every time space becomes available at the conference we'll scan the waitlist and give out as many places as we can. The whole process is automatic and no further action on your part is needed.
