Shutterstock clearly outperformed all agencies this month, finishing not too far from a BME.
Poor performance of FT and DT.
123rf and Veer did quite well
You will find more details on my blog: http://microstockexperiment.blogspot.com

Veer / Re: veer a wasted effort for new contributors?
« on: March 11, 2011, 04:48 »
I am satisfied with Veer they end up number 4 sometime number 3 in term of earnings. Return per download is generally the highest I get with quite a lot of EL

nice job on the stats!

255
Not a bad month helped by 4EL, more stats on my blog:http://microstockexperiment.blogspot.com/

Still no news on Veer? FTP mode has issues as well, description  is not filled properly:(

I still shoot with the E-510,I heard E-620 is very good and very cheap to get now. As E-510 you will have to keep the ISO down for noise. I wish Oly came up with an upgraded version of the E-620 with more MP but looks like it is not going to happen since they will offer pro micro 4/3 instead.....
I have the 9-18 mm Zuiko it is affordable and very sharp, the 50 mm f:2 is a very good lens also but slow to focus...
I think you can stick with the E620.

I am thinking about going for the Canon 7D now as main body, Olympus does not really offer something interesting at this level, E-5 is only 12MP :(

I think it largely depends of the type of pictures you have on your portolio, difficult to predict a ranking.
For me, main earners are the Big5 with 1500 pics on line (except IS): Shutterstock,Fotolia,Istock,Dreamstime,Veer.

Looks like Hellman & Friedman LLC owners of Getty are the selling mode: http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20110112-706446.html
They bought Getty not evn 2 years ago, if they sell this year I doubt they will make the profit they just made with their sale:)

270
Glad to hear that:) hope the move went well:)
In addition to Veer, can you please check custom ftp, I tried with Veer but did not work
Also for Cutcaster it does not appear as one field has to be left blank.
On the wish list also Graphic leftovers automatic submission it would be great
Looking forward to try new updates:)
Cheers!
