Local amateur photographer bags £21,000 camera bundle and cash prize in online competition
Nov 2023
Jason Moore couldn’t believe his luck after finding out he had won a stunning new Nikon Z9 camera along with a £10,000 cash prize.
The impressive £11,000 camera bundle includes a Nikon NIKKOR Z 180-600mm f5.6-6.3 lens, Nikon EN-EL18D 10.8V 3300mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, Nikon MH-33 battery charger, ULBTER screen protector, memory cards and small Rig Z9 case.
The Midweek Lifestyle Competition winner said:
“It feels unbelievable to have won, the Nikon Z9 is a great bit of kit and when I saw it come up as a prize I thought I would take a punt and here I am feeling very lucky.
“I studied photography at university and it remains a keen hobby of mine, especially wildlife and landscape photography.
“I’ve currently got a Canon Mark IV which is still pretty good, but technology has moved on a lot.”
Jason, who works in the aerospace industry, said he was considering taking the cash alternative to support his young family.
“Me and my partner have got a 10-month-old daughter and the cash would come in very handy, I think my partner was spending the money even before I got off the phone.”
The 31-year-old received a video call from BOTB presenter Christian Williams – who is also from the Isle of Wight – who surprised him with the exciting news.
Christian said:
“A huge congratulations to Jason on winning this unbelievable prize.
“I’m sure he’ll put the money to good use for his young family and he’s definitely got some nice photos on the Isle of Wight to take for sure.”
BOTB hands over the keys to a stunning dream car each week as well as a lifestyle prize. Winners have bagged Rolex watches, holidays and motorbikes in recent months. The company was founded by William Hindmarch in 1999 and has given away a whopping £64m-worth of cars so far.
