Toronto Photography Meetup Group

Just realized this is on a photo club night -- sorry, I won't be coming.

Sorry you can't make it David.

For the swap meet I will bring some stuff if anyone is interested including a BG-E2 grip (for 20D, 30D, 40D, etc.) and a BG-E4 grip (for 5D mkI).

i think i might be able to make it

i have a canon 35mm f2 lens with two filters (1 cp & 1 uv) and a nice box too to swap for a fisheye lens like this http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/mss/pho/1941513803.html or something. actually i want an ultra wide angle lens but then i want to save my money for a new body so i'll have to go for something not expensive for now

This looks like it's turning more swap meet than social... is the trip worthwhile if one is not shopping?

I'm showing up for the wings, but if somebody has a new 45mm TS-E I'm willing to trade my motorcycle for it.

or more like how many beers will it take to knock you out and take the lens hehehe

Looks like you'll go broke trying to knock someone out with beer at this place.

I think I can make it there

Here now and there is room. But it's going to fill up fast because they are showing the NFL kickoff game tonight

Oops. One week early I guess.. Who changed he date on me??

Hey Fizbot .. sorry you mixed up the date. The date was changed the same day the event was posted (Aug 31st). How are the wings.

Thanks for doing a trial run though.

Didn't try the wings (too messy on the gear!). Pad Thai special on Thursday is really good though!

This social is coming in a few days (this week) .. please try to confirm your attendance so we have a better idea of the numbers coming. Looking forward to seeing ya'll there!!

bah, signed up first but won't be able to make it will be stuck doing some overtime at home

have a good one folks!

Hi, I just found the group and registered a few days ago.

My wife and I and probably sister in law would like to attend and say hello.

While I have Canon equipment, not really anything for sale, except maybe a couple of Pocket Wizards if anyone is interested but otherwise, we'll come just to be social.

Andre

Welcome Andre to TPMG and the social. The selling/buying of items is totally optional and will be a very small distraction to the primary goal of the evening - socializing,gear talk,photography talk,etc

I heard a rumour that we are raffling off a 500/f4

How much for tickets? 1 for $3 and 3 for $5? I'll take 3 please.

I'm going to be stuck and work later than I was hoping but I really think I can at least drop by and say hi... If anyone wants me to see if I can pick up a Metro receipt let me know. Doesn't seem to matter what time the receipt is from , as long as its from the same day.

Cheers!

Sure - we would need to sell about 2500 tickets miniumum though, just to make it financially viable...

I don't have Canon gear, but will be there to socialize

What kind of gear do you shoot with?

I shoot with a Nikon D90 and rangefinder film cameras, also just got into MF with a TLR.

Bump .. this event is tomorrow. Please try to confirm your attendance. Jamesy has confirmed with the pub and we will be seated in a prime location at the front of the pub. It is booked for 20 people which should suffice looking at the numbers right now.

I will be there later than the starting date. I apparently have a meeting at 7 that should be short.

I might be there later than the start time too.

Does a Canon P&S count? I have a Powershot S3 thats a backup to my Nikon DSLR.

You should be fine with just a Canon t-shirt.

You are welcome to attend Leo.
