You spew out a grand total of 2000$ for Canon gear and, after a month of use, this is what you get - a faulty EOS 20D body that can’t focus properly. “No biggie - that’s what the warranties are for”, you’d probably think. All you have to do is get the camera to a certified Canon repair shop and, after a day or two, you get it back in full working order, right? Not really, at least not in Croatia! In Croatia, all you’ll get is a “kind” word (”You’re talking bullshit”) in no less than an official memo, a pinch of lies and untruths (”Your camera is working perfectly”, claimed after the shop employee admitted the existance of fault) and a lot (A LOT) of empty promises (”next week”, “next week”, “after the weekend”, “in a few days”…).
Or, you’re a photo-journalist earning a living with an EOS 1D and are just getting ready for your assignment trip to Olympic Games, Athens, when you notice a worldwide known, slight (but potentially critical for the assignment) bug in it’s behaviour. “There’s no cause for alarm”, you think, “that’s what the warranty and repair service are for”. Nope, you guessed it, NOT in Croatia! Because in this beautiful little country, your professional digital SLR has to wait in a queue, along with a hundred little digital compacts. “We’re terribly sorry, it can’t be fixed in less than two weeks”, they say. So, you take the faulty body to Greece with you and walk into a tiny little Canon repair shop there, explain the problem to an easy-going Japanese engineer who nods his head and gives you back your camera, fixed and fully operational, in a matter of hours.
Or…
Well, we could go on like this for quite some time. The point is - if you live in or ever come to Croatia, YOU could be NEXT.
If anyone high enough in Canon Inc. is reading this, please, PLEASE HELP US, CROATIAN CANON USERS.

Nakon nekoliko mjeseci pripremanja i mjesec dana mukotrpnog rada (Marko, hvala još jednom) www.mirkobeovic.com su konačno online. Stari dizajn i funkcionalnost su izdržali godinu dana i jako sam zadovoljan vašom reakcijom na njih. Preko 36 000 posjeta, oko 500 000 tisuća pogledanih fotografija te preko 100 upisa u knjigu gostiju daju mi za pravo da mislim da su Vam se moji radovi svidjeli. Upravo poradi toga sam i odlučio da napravim ovaj upgrade kako bi vam na taj način još jednom zahvalio na Vašoj podršci. Što je novoga na www.mirkobeovic.com??? Puno toga, osim mojih fotografija koje ćete i ubuduće moći gledati u 5 kategorija sada mate priliku i nešto konkretno naučiti putem FAQ-a u kojem je detaljno objašnjeno i sa ilustracijama popraćeno preko 100 fotografskih pojmova. Trudio sam se da sve napišem svima razumljivim jezikom bez puno kompliciranja a Vi ćete prosuditi dali sam uspio. Nadalje tu je i Photoblog u kojem ću svakodnevno pisati svoje misli, savjete, trikove i sve ostalo što mislim da bi vam moglo biti zanimljivo a uglavnom je vezano uz fotografiju. A i kad već svi imaju blog zašto nebi i ja ;-) Dodana je još sekcija Pearls gdje su u 3 katgorije uvrštene web stranice koje su znatno i izravno pridonjele www.mirkobeovic.com ili su svojim sadržajem i formom izrazito kvalitetne i inspirativne za mene pa vam ih tim putem predstavljam i svakako preporučam da ih posjetite. Eto za početak toliko. Nadam se da ćete uživati u novom dizajnu te ponešto korisno pročitati i naučiti iz novododanih sadržaja. Hvala Vam još jednom na iskazanoj podršci i uživajte.
