That's the spirit!
I think I'll confine myself to warm coffee shops and homes, and keep to isolated ventures into the cold.

I'm in. I've got a 40 Rokkor-M en route (thanks again, Joe!), and this will be the perfect opportunity for it to get acquainted w/ me and my M2.
Roland, Robert -- bobkonos & I want to come down to SF for a little shooting after Christmas -- any chance for a meet up?

This sounds fun.
I'm in with an M8 and either a 35 UC hex or 50 summilux v.2.

infrequent,
Your signature may help me decide on a combination.

What the heck! I'll use my Bessa R and Rigid Industar 50 lens. I just discovered that a Kodak Series V chrome lens hood fits this lens and I'm waiting for one in the mail from ebay. So, Ill be ready to go.

Keith, when you say no cropping, what exactly do you mean? Well, I know what cropping is, but I guess I wonder if you mean absolutely no cropping? For example, if I print my 35mm neg on 5x7 paper, it necessitates some cropping. Is that OK?
If so, I'm in. M6 classic, 50mm Summarit and HP5+.

Hi Dan,
I guess I was being a little tongue in cheek with the no cropping remark ... I think we should just exercise a little restraint and not crop from landscape to portrait or vice versa, or anything quite that extreme.
Hey ... if the bartender had his way it'd be no SLR's DSLR's or anything that wasn't a rangefinder. Luckily I don't remember him suggesting that to me!

Very reasonable. I look forward to it. Remind me to lock up all my other gear, so I don't slip up.
Btw, hope to see something wild from Oz, like the Python in your back yard, for example.

I expect that it'll be my Bessa L sporting its 15mm f/4.5 Super Wide Heliar. No cropping to me means printing full frame with the black borders to prove it, but that's how I usually print B&W anyway.

So your prints have perforation holes and all these KODAK/ILFORD/AGFA words, along with frame numbers?
This question is actual to me, because I scan prints and cropping is natural there, + I don't like to waste paper since it is not cheap.

I'm also in, I'll be using my Leica M2 and Color Skopar 35mm (just about to pay for it and the such -- so hopefully here this week.) Probably will use Tri-X.

I'm in. I have to decide what camera I'll be using though. My eos EF-M originally planned has a sticky top shutter speed.
Maybe a canonet GIII?
Maybe just my 5d....

Don't worry Gavin ... with two days to go I haven't decided either yet.
I considered my Crown Graphic but the thought of lugging that around in the current heat in Brisbane doesn't excite me much ... but I wouldn't mind staying away from 35mm for the two weeks so I'm now leaning towards my Bronica RF 645.
But this could change of course!
I notice Al's going for his signature Bessa and 15mm Heliar!

Crown Graphic and Brisbane heatbowl sounds like a decent effort Keith - although it would certainly be different.
You've given me a great idea though... There's a little old Holga that's only been used a few times so far sitting in my cupboard - Maybe I should shoot down to photo continental in Mt Gravatt and pick up some 120 rolls.... Hmmm. Would be interesting to use the holga with a tiny flash and the 120 film on new years night. It's certainly out of my comfort zone...

Yay! Now I am 100% in!
Nothing unusual: Leica M6 with Jupiter-8 I think.

Should I attempt to uphold the reputation of the 35mm UC-Hexanon against an onslought of 35mm 'Crons, 'Luxs and C/V competition?
Too many lenses. Too little time.
Yikes! The 17th is rapidly approaching.
