About 1 year ago, a bunch of rangefinders(RF) enthusiasts in ClubSnap RF sub-forum got together to form what is known as RFSG today.
On 6th August 2010, we held an inaugural event RF – An Introduction @ SAM for the local RF community at the Singapore Arts Museum. The event featured keynotes by speakers from our very own RF community, sharing their passion, their experiences and their journey into world of RF. The event also showcased photographs taken using RF by people like you and me. The turnout for that special day was overwhelming and we saw many new and familiar faces. I am sure those who turned up were not disappointed
There is also a special book where we opened the opportunity for everyone of you RF-ers to contribute your photographs that were taken by RF.

In the past year, the local RF community has grown by leaps and bounds and there were many newcomers into the world of RF. As such, we are going to publish a 2nd book next year! We are going to open entries to the next book from now till 31 Jan 2012, which would give you more than enough time to shoot, develop, scan, edit and select the 3 best photos you have. This time round, we will also be requesting RFers whose works are selected to include a small write-up on your RF Journey (as the title suggests ) So all of your RFers out there, its time to go out there, shoot, shoot, shoot and send us your 3 best works!
Now… how can you send in your works?
Each RFer will be allowed to send in 3 pieces of their favourite photographs (only taken using a RF and we trust you on that) following the example as stated below (please follow the format) and send it to rangefinder.sg@gmail.com
