Hey Ryan, I would love to come, but work is @Dufferin and Finch and home is in Markham. Really difficult to make it downtown. Having 2 kids doesn't help either on a school day :cry:

Anyone happen to have a 2CR5 battery that I can pop into my camera to test that it still works before I go spend $10+ on the battery?

is it used in any current camera or device? if so a camera/electronics store might have one they use in demos--i'm sure they will let you try against the prospect of a quick sale in case it works

You talked about catching the sunset at the end of Part II, with the time just springing forward maybe you might want to push the start time of part II a bit. Maybe 5:45 and push the social to 7:15, or skip the sunset and go and have a pint at the original time. Your call.

My street shots didn't work out so much, but the beer shots were alright.
