From what I remember yours was about the same size with hood deployed...




ok this is just getting bad...


Anyone get shots of the 70-200 and the 300 side by side?

and on the crop body @ 200mm = 320!

yeah, and on a 5D 15mm FE = 180º, it's all about the girth baby....


















especially when combined with the length.

Oh we know how you like your wide black ones.

bump... any updates anyone?

I can come for sure.
Nikki's a maybe.

I have to get child seats installed on saturday, but beyond that I think I'm good.

Installed?

Nice Ben,any good spots you want to go outside of the norm?

^^^ not sure, but testing the 24L is my priority. I want to try to figure out how wide 3 stitched shots is in comparison to my 17-40mm both vertically and horizontally and to see how bad the CA and vignetting is stopped down (the only way I shoot my TS-Es)... So anywhere really.

• Downtown?
• Ida Lewis
• Ft Adams
• Ocean Drive
• St Georges
• Second/Third Beach
• Jamestown maybe?
  • beavertail
  • ft weatherall
• Seal Point (near my house in NK)?
• Narragansett?

Take my car, my wife's car and my Mom's truck to the police station and have them install the baby seats. I guess something like 90% of all baby seats are improperly installed so they really urge you to have it done professionally. I plan on trying it myself then having them double check the install.

Oh wow, I had no idea! Learn something new everyday.

yeah, neither did I...
the OBGYN and pediatrician both told us to be sure we went and had it done and that I didn't DIY... I guess the hospital we're planning on going to won't let you go home w/o having it done either, they'll make you leave, get it done and come back (or Dad goes during the mandatory 2 overnight period at some point. It's a little over the top IMHO, but safety first.

If we do BAP for lunch/ brunch,downtown is covered. ^ all of the above are good with me.

are there really seals now at seal point?

I know of only 1 way to find out.

touche... Ill play with google maps today for possible agenda...

i might could be down for this. of course you canon-heads would have to deal with a pentax(ian?)...

ok, so it looks like we will be meeting up in Newport, 10am Sunday morning. Hopefully we can decide on a meeting point today.

Sure, why not? You can even play with either of my canons......

Seriously, where are we meeting?

Is that the public lot across from the dinner train before Goat island?

:smacks forehead:

I was thinking here.
but this would also work.

oh ok, near the gazebo and park. Yea either one works.

I figure start down there, do ft adams and ocean dr, then either go to lunch then or the beaches/cliffwalk depending on the time, then off to the other, then JTN and gansett after....

also the lasers frostbite sundays around noon I think.

meeting at the gazebo sounds good to me. I think I've gotten the OK from the ol' lady.

sounds good. I saw someone on flickr who said there were seals last weekend. Maybe they are still there.

So who all is coming?

We're out. I just checked the weather reports and they all point to snow/rain/wind for tomorrow and we just don't care to be out in that. If it was going to be a nicer day, we'd be all for it, but neither of us feel like getting sick again from being out in crummy weather. Sorry guys -K

^

so the gazebo down near Ida then? Past the end of thames?
My cell is 401-862-7255. I'll be there around 10am with a gray Porsche.

It's not worth the trouble to have to drive through the yucky weather. We'd rather go when we can spend the day in Newport and enjoy the scenery and tour the homes and whatnot. I just don't think that's going to be possible tomorrow. I'm sure there will be a bunch more trips down as the year goes on anyways. No big deal.-K

yeah, can we possibly have a meet when it isnt gonna snow? i mean, i dont mind driving, but, 2hour trip + snow = alot longer.

this is so funny to me because the only reason the snow has me bummed is that I wish I was driving 3~4 hours in it to go skiing....

But yeah, Matt, Leah and Erik, we can all car pool in the cayenne once we meet up if you want.

nice!!

Home!

I have a ton of photos to sort through. I'll have plenty to post tomorrow.
Had a great time driving everyone around and hanging out. Can't wait to see what everyone else shot.

^ Home?!?! We left your place at 630 and just walked in the door!

Yeah, I was just hoping I'd beat you since I've made a loaf of bread, made the bed, and a bunch of other crap already tonight. But yeah, email me those cayenne pics at 600~800 wide tomorrow y0! And glad you made it home safely. It's HONKING out here now.

^ going through shots now... Man, the 70-200 is sharp and the colors are fantastic. Im more and more impressed with it each time I use it.

I have all 3 runs of the cayenne, I like #1 and #3 the best.
