Pentax has opened an international virtual gallery and community space for photographers who shoot with Pentax gear. The Pentax Photo Gallery lets members exhibit their work, share information and resources within an artistic community, and create an online portfolio with an included biography. The Gallery's search engine can locate images by the camera bodies and lenses used to capture them, as well as by photographers' names and subject categories.
Launching with 2,500 images submitted by more than 300 artists, the Gallery currently features work by photographers from more than 40 countries throughout Europe; Asia; the Middle East; North, South, and Central America; Africa; and the Pacific Rim. The contributors range in age from 16 to 80 years. The site can be navigated in English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, and Italian.
Photographers must submit images they wish to exhibit to the Gallery, whose selection committee will evaluate their artistic and technical merits in order to accept or deny them. Artist voting is also an optional part of the acceptance process.
Pentax photographers interested in more information regarding submitting work to the Gallery may e-mail photogallery@pentax.com or view a flash demonstration of the process.
