The H1B visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) program is unlikely to reach its cap of 65,000 before the start of the 2010 fiscal with nearly 20,000 vacancies amid the economic downturn. This has happened for the first time in several years that the demand for the visas, which is mostly availed by Indian professionals, has slowed down.
Also due to a large number of rejections of H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) petitions, this figure of 20,000 vacancies has remained almost the same for the past two months. Past figures indicate that Indian IT professionals have been a major beneficiary of H1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) visas. An additional 20,000 H1B can also be issued to those foreign professionals, who have masters or higher degree from the U.S. Though the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) received 20,000 petitions, it continues to accept applications in this category.

(1) I have applied for my OPT very recently with a start date of oct1, 2007 and its in the processing stage.
(2) I am planning to apply(say by August 1st, 2007) for 140/485 concurrently in EB2-NIW category, as the PDs have become current.
Will my OPT be rejected because of the pending 485? Is it possible to file 140/485 concurrent or should I wait till my OPT is approved (by that time the PDs will no longer be current...hmmm). Your valuable suggestions are needed. Pls help me....
Thank you in anticipation..

...man so much noise...
I'm finding the same thing with my D2H. Take a look at the auto photo I attached earlier today for the noise in the shadows there - yuck. I've also seen an exposure shifting problem during any kind of motordrive and autoexposure. If I select manual mode it seems to go away. But I've examined shot sequences where EXIF data indicates identical Aperture and Shutter and yet there is a shift. I wonder if these things have that much production variance to cause noise and calibration problems like this.

what do other d2h shooters think?
thanks
