Your Favorite Prize - Enter To Win A Canon 5D MK II

I was going to wait until next week to announce this but I’m too excited to wait so here goes. I’ve checked the entries and no matter what I give away, I get more entries when I give away a Canon 5D MK II than any other camera. It’s your favorite prize. Here’s another chance to get one. Many of you know it’s harder and harder to even BUY a Canon 5D MK II - and it will continue to get harder as shortages from Japan impact the supply change - but I have a brand new 5D MK II in the box ready to give away sitting in my office. Here’s how you can enter to win it. - Follow ScottBourne on Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/scottbourne) - Follow SmugMug on Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/SmugMug) (If you are already following no need to unfollow and refollow – doing so repeatedly will get you blocked and banned from the contest) - Tweet the message you see in quotes below just ONE TIME! (There is no advantage to tweeting more than once. There is also no penalty for tweeting more than once but you won’t have any better chance of winning and you may anger your own Twitter followers if you decide to tweet more than once. Please keep track of your own entry. We can’t respond to requests asking about entry status.)

There’s no need to RT about the contest more than once. It doesn’t improve your chances of winning.

We check our referral logs to find your links. We check my Twitter account for a list of followers. We throw all that information at a random number generator and pick a winner.

I promise to (as in the past) make sure that you get plenty of good content from me here on Twitter in between the giveaways.
