Philadelphia Camera Show ??

[JeffGreene]

Both Al and Me (Jeff Greene) will probably be wearing the old Rangefinder Forum caps. At least one of us should be wearing them. Look forward to meeting you. Nick and Al have already expressed interest. Don't know about Nick, but Al appears to be attending. By the way, the guy in my avatar is not me, just one of the guys I shoot Trap with. See you there.

 

[Al Patterson]

I'll be there, but as I'm coming home from NYC late Saturday, I'll likely not be up early enough to get there at 10:00AM. How about we try to meet by the entrance to the show around noon?

I'm not sure if I have the RFF hat in my car, but I'll be wearing it if I have it. If not, I'll be wearing my Indiana Jones fedora.

I'll try to make it. Busy weekend for me. I very much want to attend but depens on what time I get in on Sunday morning 😉

Camera Show

Camera Show

My first name is Jeff. Definitely will be there (blue jeans and a blue baseball cap: aw heck, if you see someone who's a dead ringer for Cary Grant, that's me).
Probably soon after 10, but I'll try to find Al at noon. (If the show has shrunk even more, I'll hang in a nearby lobby with a trashy novel.)

 

[JeffGreene]

Jeff, Jorge, Al, Nick and John (i.e. Huffy, hope you can make it!):

See everyone there. I'll bring some of my collection to share. John (i.e. Huffy) brought some great old cameras to our last get-together. If you have interestiing old cameras bring them along. Hope you can make it, Nick! I'll be wearing one of the old Rangefinderforum hats. I hope to be there by 10:00. Look forward to seeing everyone!

Best regards,

Jeff Greene

Just in case anyone missed it, the show has been moved to the Holiday Inn. Also, there are several decent restaurants nearby - depends on if you're in the mood for Indian, Mexican, Italian, Roast Beef...

 

[Al Patterson]

See you there at noon Al.

Jeff

I'm heading down tonight instead of staying up here tonight, so I might actually get there at 10:00AM. If I'm a bit later, I'll look around for guys.

I generally try to get there a little early. See you there!

If I am in attendance (still not sure), I will be wearing Robin Hood-style tights and a fez.

That's better than a pink tutu and a mohawk haircut...

It wasn't bad. The Photorama guy said the response, at least in the morning, was much better than they'd had in the past. All the regulars were there:

Woodmere Camera
Brooklyn Camera
Dan Black

And many others. I was able to get in early, and snagged an Oly 35RC for $5.00. Everything worked but the meter. Have sent it off to Camtech for a CLA and meter repair. Al Patterson and Jeff Polaski were there. We had a good meal, spent some time talking rangefinders, and have tentatively got a shoot date for the next Tattoo show. Went there last year with Vagabond (since moved to Colorado) and got some great shots.

It's a great show for people stuff or "animal photography" as Winogrand used to say. Please join us. It's scheduled for April 18th - 20th at the Philadelphia Sheraton. Here's an example of what's available:

Actually, Jeff, I'm happy you didn't show us that photo at lunch. -- Jeff P.

Thanks Jeff!!

I'm not familiar with Camtech....could you send me more info?

I may be out of town on those dates in April but I will let you know.

I'm pissed I couldn't get to the show...life is too busy somtimes.

Thanks again.
