Looks like I'm staying down there after the mini meet then. So that's a yes.
Real soon now I might have a lull in my schedule where I spend the weekend at home Peter

Stubbsy, you might as well bite the bullet and move down here. I believe the house next to Birddogs is up for sale. Last edited by huynhie on Fri Sep 30, 2005 11:59 am, edited 1 time in total.

Yes a tripod will be best since you'll have the opportunity to do some long exposures. There's a strong chance you can borrow one given you're coming all this way. Would be a shame for you to miss out and you'll have some great shots to take home. Peter

Ben... I can lend you a REALLY crappy Velbon tripod... It does the job, but is not ultra stable... Unfortunately it also makes a horrible squeaking noise every time you move it, but I can give it a blast of WD-40 before you use it... It has a narrow thread fitting on the "head" suitable for screwing into the D70 body... Cheers, John

Re: Hello~~
Jini, First of all welcome. Now aside from the welcome, this is the wrong thread to do a welcoming on. If you want to start a topic talking about yourself and get all the welcoming you can muster, advice, etc, click here to start a new topic in the General Discussion section. Otherwise, this thread's about a night shoot next Saturday night. If you have an interest in participating, please do so by commenting here, else post in a different thread.

I may not be at the mini-meet on Saturday, so thought I'd throw a few ideas in the ring... I'll go with what the majority of people decide... My preference would be for the area between Kirribilli & Lavender Bay... Easy parking + no drunks + a wealth of things to photograph... Bridge, Opera House, City skyline, Luna Park, North Sydney... I know that it's been done before, but I think it would be hard to find so many different things to shoot in one area... Very open to other suggestions though... If I don't attend the mini-meet, could someone post the arrangements up on the forum on Sat. afternoon, so that I know where to meet people... Cheers, John

I'll have a meeting point updated by 12:00 on Saturday.
We might have a late supper after the night shooting. Birddog114

WOW,,,
I really want to go there, but I don't have any camera. Before 2months ago, My camera was stolen by thief. So I want to buy D70 and I'll go outside for one of the best photograph. And I'm not a Aussie speaker I'm one of the Korean and n I have been in Australia about 3months. So my english is poor. Does anybody can teach photography for me? It will improve my photography and also my english. Anyway ~ What I NEED to do first is purchase D70 from Birddog. Sorry I don't know your name. After that, I can join. English is interesting for me, but it's not easy for me. HAVE A NICE DAY EVERYBODY~ cyworld@bigpond.net.au http://www.cyworld.com/kwangjoon
You don't need the camera, I can loan you my D100 + lens for the night shooting, before doing this, please join the mini meet in the morning session (Saturday 8/10). Birddog114

Police Officer, protection and designated driver Just kidding Birdy, have you guys picked a spot to try your shoot?
What about Hyde Park, St. Mary Cathedral and surrounding area? Another point - Pyrmont Bay Wharf - good view to the city from the other side. Technicaly, we can start from Pyrmont Bay Wharf, then go through Darling Harbour and then visit to Hyde park if we'd like

Meeting & shooting points will be discussed on saturday at the mini meet.
Yes, I have in my mind few spots but will talk on Saturday morning. We will have Police Officer and Law enforcements agencies escort & cover. One important note: Weather permitted only. Birddog114
