Canon man here, coming with a 30D. And something gives me an inkling that we'll hear from Wayne on the matter soon.

I checked my flight, it's coming in at a time still close to yours 2:47. I'll have to tell the pilot to kick it into overdrive.

My advice to you:

- Use your own ears as everybody's hearing and preferences are different.
- Try to audition as much equipment as possible to find your sound.
- Buy used to save money.

You got that right - not what I was expecting at all. Have you been talking to Iron_Dreamer? If I'm not careful, the two of you will convert me back to a Nikon guy before this weekend is over.

I am waffleing between bringing just the 5D and one lens (either 17-40 or 35 1,4L), or the whole kit. Probably the latter since I can fit it in a LowePro backpack and just throw it in the car.

Good times ahead, boys ...

I'll probably have my D80/SB600 rig with me. I'm packing so much other crap, what's a bit more. Back to downloading movies to watch on the plane!

Call me if your flight is delayed. Otherwise, Iron_Dreamer and I can hang around a bit and we can all split a cab, or share a ride if someone can pick us up.

No I haven't been talking to Iron_Dreamer. There's no switching over. Just own both. It's like headphones, you'd be better off with HP1000, HE90, K1000, etc.

Will do. You should do the same in case you are delayed.

Well,I've got a D200 that I'll be bringing and if you guys want I can bring my Sony FX-1 for a third angle.I don't usually bring it to the meets because who wants to watch same angle footage and I'm usually too wrapped up in the gear.Let me know,Gary.

I am in about 8pm on Southwest airlines tomorrow evening, and I have a car if anyone needs a ride to the Embassy Suites. Send a PM to me and we can exchange phone numbers.
I have seen many ideas for doings tomorrow evening. Hopefully, a number of us can get together.

Okay! I'm here, checked in and LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO DO!

Update: I just had a lovely discussion with Ray Samuels. I auditioned a B52 with these Sony closed cans (I can't remember the model ) with source being a meridian CDP. Organic, layered, effortless--just freaking music.
Just freaking music...

I would suspect they are Ray's Sony R-10s and they sound awesome with the B-52s.

Sony is funny like that. 99.9% of the stuff they make is average consumer stuff. Then every once in a while they make some over the top products to show that they still can make quality products.
