We already told you that Nikon is going to be unveiling their brand-new D700 full-frame DSLR at Shoot! The Day on Sunday, July 20th in New York City. How many more reasons do you need to attend? Well, we’ve got a few more.

Rob Haggart from aphotoeditor.com (and former Director of Photography from a little magazine known as Men’s Journal) will present his famous “Editorial Bootcamp” presentation, and then he’s going to moderate an editorial buyer panel including:

• Leslie dela Vega, Photo Editor, TIME Magazine
• Whitney Lawson, Photo Editor, Travel+Leisure
• Michael Wichita, Photo Editor, AARP Bulletin
• Ryan Schick, Photo Editor, Conde Nast Portfolio

Yeah, that’s right, just a few photo editors from some of the largest and most influential magazines in the world.

Angela Natividad from adrants.com is going to lead an ad agency panel with an equally stellar grouping including:

• Belinda Lopez, Senior Art Buyer, Strawberry Frog
• Wanda Lau, Senior Art Director, Greater Than One
• Jen Santiago, Managing Art Buyer, G2 Direct & Digital
• Molly Aaker, Art Buyer, Unit7

Then Rachel Rein, Art Buyer at Hill Holiday, New York,  is going to present “From Start to Finish: Finding the Perfect Stock Photos for a Major Campaign,” which will highlight an agency project that employed stock photography for a major telecommunications provider.

But we’re not done.

On the photographer side of the fence, we have:

• Jazz Mandair and Gautam Pai from JaincoTech who will be discussing strategies for effective keywording.
• PhotoShelter co-founder, Grover Sanschagrin, will take you through his very popular “Killer Websites for Photographers” presentation that he’s given around the country
• Apple will be presenting a workflow seminar using Apple Aperture
• and Nikon‘s Sam Garcia will round it out with a discussion of photography in the digital era.

And in case you get bored, you can head on over to the tradeshow room where the following companies will be presenting their wares:

• Nikon
• Adorama Camera
• JPG Magazine
• Apple
• MAC Group (Profoto, Sekonic, Mamiya, Pocket Wizard, and more!)
• JaincoTech
• Regus
• Advertising Photographers of America
• Slideluck Potshow
• and of course, PhotoShelter

And then when it’s all done, we’ll pony up to the bar and raise our glass to the new wave of photography that you’re helping to create.

If you were around for our City Tour in the Fall of 2007, you know we’re not joking around. This is about giving you the information you need to succeed, so don’t be shy! Make sure to register if you haven’t already!
