• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

A Good Time to Buy Canon's 10-22

If you're in the market for the Canon EF-S 10-22 wide angle lens, Canon's spring instant rebates have kicked in and you can get this lens at B&H for $660 with free shipping.

Not a bad deal for an outstanding storm photography lens!

A plug for B&H Photo...

I bought my 10-22 a little over a week ago. Just spoke to a customer service agent who said they would honor the rebate on my purchase.:D
 
Although $50 off a $700 lens doesn't seem that big of a deal....something someone could negotiate without a sale anyway. But then again B&H already has good prices.
 
I just purchased one from BuyDig for $660 ($670 with the shipping). It seems that shortly after Canon announced the spring rebates, I noticed the price for the 10-22 on Adorama and B&H jumped to $750 before the rebate, therefore, when the rebate is applied directly the lens goes for $700....the price the lens was initially BEFORE Canon announced the rebates. They're not the only ones however. I noticed that many websites increased the price on the lens so when the rebate is applied you haven't really saved anything. The only two sites that you get any type of actual savings on it seems are BuyDig and NewEgg....at least for the 10-22.

That's interesting, because in many states, that's illegal. It is here in Maryland, with the exception of some half dozen items. Many department stores have been caught and fined for this practice. Perhaps because it's on the internet, they can do it.
