Yes, it'll do for this time.
After Puck Fair closes, this could be a candidate for our next place...

It has a lot of indoor seating, not many people in it, and an outdoor area too.

Cool! I'll bring my rollei.
Have we finally become an established entity now that the camera manufacturers are marketing to?

If so, someone from Fuji should attend when I bring my Kodak Stereo Realist X Pan hack! Or maybe Mamiya could drop by and listen to my pitch for the digital Mamiya 6.
Ok, I can dream.

Christian,
Soon in February we will have the 5th Annual Camera Beauty Contest. Perhaps we can get some corporate sponsorship. We frequently have visitors from all over the world, and I for one buy a lot of cameras. LOL.

Cal, I haven't used it much. Been tied down with work a lot. But it's incredibly smooth. Barely feel the rewind and the shutter doesn't have the raspy sound it had pre-cla. Overall i'am very happy. Money well spent I think. Thanks for recommending him to me.

I'm gonna get drunk and beat up the Rollei guy! Ok, maybe not.

Pro-Mone,
That Fleenor sticker on the inside of your camera is very valuable. The trick with the Rollie is to not let it sit on the shelf too long.
Unlike a Leica that gets an overhaul which comes back with a stiff film advance and a loud shutter your Rollie will only get a little bit quieter and smoother, and your Rollie will maintain that quietness and smoothness, but only if used regularly.
My 3.5 F often requires me to crank the film advance to know that the shutter has fired because I can't hear or feel the shutter, and its been about 4 years since it got a complete overhaul from Harry.

Month after month I let these meetings slip by; so this is the one. See you at 10am.

I don't think I need to see more of the expo. I will be at the new beer place.
Joe, I originally didn't manage to go to one of these until they held one a block from my house, and I didn't have an excuse. It is generally a pretty relaxed affair.

Have fun guys. Wish I could make it. Made a day trip today, had a lot of fun walking around the city taking photos and going to the expo.
