New York NYC September Meet-Up

Does anyone who is planning to attend own a smallish Domke bag (F3x or any F5) that they could bring, if its not their normal everyday bag?

Thanks in advance.
 
I have a Domke F-802 I could bring. Not a tiny bag, but not carry-on luggage either. Let me know if you're interested.

No, I get in late saturday night, so no revolution for me!

Are we meeting at 1pm on sunday? I feel like I may be an odd one out by chimping at my LCD. Maybe I need an M4 or M2 :cool:
 
Yeah, digital Leicas are well represented at the meet-ups, no worries. We are definitely equal opportunity gear lovers :)

I have a feeling this will be an epic meet up.
 
It can be a rowdy crowd and we New Yorkers can be mighty aggressive. Mostly we laugh at ourselves.

BTW I get made fun of because I'm a retro-man who shoots only film. BTW I need help to use a cell phone. LOL.

Also I have been requested to bring my Nikon F3 equipt with MD-4 motordrive and Noct-Nikkor.

Let's see if we get half a dozen M9's to show up. I think our record was 5 earlier this year.

Wow,,this looks like a big meetup..
Scott, I'll bring the M9 35cron asph combo.

(though my M3 has a slight bit of VF separation, it's never been an issue). Using the 50 DR cron on it feels so good. :)

I'll be bringing a tan one of these if that works...

Cool, I'll bring the F-802. I'll also dig out the Domke inserts I have for this bag.

Thanks, Jeff. I may have talked myself out of getting a 35 'Cron ASPH. With the Nokton 35/1.2 and the Summarit 35, I've got 35s covered I think.

I've thought about selling the Summarit against the cost of the Summicron, but the thing is, the Summarit was one of the lenses I sent to Leica in Germany with my M9 to be aligned; so it's mated perfectly now. Which is a big plus (to me).

I'll also be sure to bring both versions of the Nokton. (I hard-coded the version II, too.) ;)

It's my favorite lens. I only bought version II out of an abstract, irrational fear of one day losing this lens and not being able to replace it.

Please bring the summarit to the meet-up if possible. Thanks.

Will do.

No one wants my 40-odd sheets of Epson premium luster A3 paper??

Jeff,

I'll bring the Leica overhauled M3 with my version 1 Rigid that is known to have ultra-low contrast. (narrow focus ring)

I finally broke down and got a 28 Cron ASPH and the crazy scalloped hood that looks plain evil. (Also will fit Tung's 35 Lux ASPH)

I'll bring one of my rigged F3's with the Noct-Nikkor as a conversation piece.

If you can remember, bring that book on night photography.

FYI there's a really good show around the corner from The Bitter End on Bleeker in what I believe is NYU's Grey Gallery featuring Joel Meyerwitz's documenting Ground Zero with a large format camera.

Basically since it was a crime scene access by the press was limited at Ground Zero. JM spent a year shooting there, and his story how he was able to infiltrate a secured area is rather inspiring. The catalog for the Show is available at the NYU bookstore on Broadway and West 4th for only $39.99.

I will be late, depending on the traffic driving back from Stamford on Sunday morning and my luck of finding a parking spot.

Scott - very interested in seeing the result of the Nokton 1.2 v.II. I thought of it for a bit but went the other way for a 24mm Lux as it became available. Now, I am broke. Will bring it with me and add another M9 to the list for the record this time.
