What: "Prime Time Walk" - aka: any camera, only prime lenses - any focal length
When: Wednesday August 14th 2013
Time: 6:00pm
Where: We will meet at College & Yonge Street - Timmies at College Park

The days are getting shorter - thus the 6pm meetup time, we can walk in any direction, although my thought is to head south from College Street, but I am open to suggestions. We could also walk west along College Street.

So the deal is: You can shoot with any camera, but your lens has to be prime - of any focal length. Afterward - post some samples of what you shot on either our facebook page or here in the forum.

Hope to see a few of you!

I could commit. Or be committed. If, in the spirit of things, I did commit, what length would you suggest for this event ? I'm thinking wide angle.

Sure, wide angle works.... I am going to probably stick to my 85mm f/1.8

How about a completely newbie member who just purchased his 50mm f/1.8. Would be my first meet or event.

Boo! I've got a 4pm meeting. Will probably be late.

Any idea of which direction we will be heading/circling? I'm thinking of using the Sherbourne/College Green P.

Just park your F16 at the Island airport & you'll be fine.
