Prizes

Fstoppers is excited to be giving away some amazing photography related gear for each of these critique the community contests. For October’s Landscape Photography critique we are giving away the following prizes:

First Place: One lucky winner will receive Tamron’s brand new 28 – 300mm F/4 – 7.1 Di III VC VXD all in one travel lens for Sony. This full frame lens has an insane focal range that will allow you to capture both wide angle shots as well as details far off in the distance. Weighing in at just 21.5 ounces and measuring only 5 inches long, this is the perfect landscape lens for the photographer looking to travel light but unrestricted. This prize is valued at $900.

Second Place: This month’s second place winner will receive a free copy of Acdsee’s brand new flagship photo editing suite Photo Studio Ultimate 2025. Acdsee has become one of the top raw editing software for those who want to break away from the perpetual subscription model other companies offer. Photo Studio Ultimate 2025 is a substantial upgrade with a brand-new Ai-Super Resolution upscaler, new non-destructive Ai selection masking, and GPU processing that makes batching files faster than ever. Whether you’re looking for a great alternative to Lightroom or you just want a single piece of software for all your photo cataloging and raw editing needs, Acdsee’s Photo Studio Ultimate 2025 is the latest version of this highly acclaimed software. This prize is valued at $150

Third Place: Our final third place winner will receive a free copy of any photography tutorial from the Fstoppers Store. This prize is valued at $299.

Each month we also offer our own special sales, and for the month of October, we have three unique deals for the Fstoppers community.

This Month’s Best Deal

Fstoppers and 5 Day Deal have teamed up again for the biggest and best photography deal of the entire year! For the next few days, 5 Day Deal is offering their annual photography bundle worth over $3000 and you can buy it for just $166. This year Fstoppers is offering our Photographing the World II – Cityscape, Astrophotography and Advanced Post-Processing tutorial in the Complete Charity Bundle. We normally sell this landscape tutorial by Elia Locardi for $300 but for just $166 you can get this tutorial along with dozens of other photography products all together in the Charity Bundle. Sometimes the sales page for 5 Day Deal can be a bit confusing, but if you want the most bang for your buck as well as Photographing the World II, scroll down to the bottom and find the Charity Bundle.

You can watch the promo video for Photographing the World II above and also use this link to check out every tutorial, plugin, preset, and digital asset included in this year’s 5 Day Deal.

Second Fstoppers Deal

On October 1st, Fstoppers released our newest travel adventure series with Elia Locardi, Photographing the World Japan 2: Discovering Hidden Gems. This tutorial follows Elia throughout Japan as he searches for new locations he has never photographed and includes some amazing locations many photographers might miss if they were to visit the land of the rising sun for the first time.

If you buy PTW Japan 2, you will automatically get a second Photographing the World tutorial absolutely free ($300 value). To sweeten the deal even more, Elia is offering a free copy of Radiant Photo for 6 full months ($90 value). Elia has partnered with Radiant Photo to produce the ultimate editing software to help him streamline his complex landscape workflow and make it simple for anyone to replicate his colors, tone, and overall style quickly and easily

Third Fstoppers Deal

If you already have Photographing the World II or the 5 Day Deal package is more than you want to spend, to promote this month’s Landscape Photography Critique the Community, we are running a flash sale on yet another installment of Elia Locardi’s landscape educational series, Photographing the World III: Advanced Cityscapes. For the month of October, you can get PTW III for just $100. This tutorial is normally $300 and it’s one of the most advanced tutorials Elia has ever produced on cityscape photography. You can check out the promo video for Photographing the World III below.
