Free studies normally permit the photograph to be taken any time in the preceding month. I assumed it was the same with the Camera Phone Free Study, but I can't see any extra rules saying this in the challenge description.
Will photos taken between 1st and 30th Sept be acceptable?
If not, I suggest that the rule be added imminently as many may have made the same association I did.
Edit: In fact I see that: "I submit that my entry was based on photograph(s) taken with a digital camera on or between Sep. 24th 2014 and Sep. 30th 2014." Was this an oversight? Or is it the rule for this challenge?

Seems clear to me.
"Submission Deadline: Tuesday, September 30th, 2014 (began Sep. 24th 2014)" |

That is clear. What isn't clear to me is whether it was an oversight or not. FS-ses normally span a month.
And the reason it's not clear is because "free study" says "one month" to me, not "one week". I reflexively submitted an image out of date to the challenge without thinking. I'm only thinking about it now.

Are you somehow missing the September 2014 FS challenge?
Free Study 2014-09 · Advanced Editing
Free Study for September 2014.
Previous cell phone challenges have been free study and 1 week submission. |

"Free Study" means "No Assigned Topic": it doesn't imply any particular time format at all. It just happens that most of our Free Studies have been month-long.
As Richard points out, the previous camera-phone challenge was also a 1-week Free Study.
The timing as displayed on the challenge details page is correct: your camera phone image may not have been taken before September 24th DPC Server Time. |
