Hey, if anybody goes I'd appreciate it (if you're willing) if you'd text me pictures while you're there, if you see anything you think I might like. Box cameras, folders, flashbulbs, expired film (620, 120, 35mm), etc. Anybody? I'll send you my cell number.  |

Just figured out the budget isn't going to allow for spending $100 on gas just to get there, so I'll have to back out. For a consolation though, there is a PPA of Virginia convention this wekend in Roanoke, and it's open to the public on Sunday. KEH is supposed to be there, so I guess there will be sellers also. Maybe when the weather is better, and I can plan ahead a bit, we can get together for a day of just photography.

I may or may not go -- Metro will be single-tracking and the bus to the venue is only hourly. If I go, I will be wearing a tan baseball cap from the National Postal Museum.

I went, no cell phone camera...
Picked up a 5cm f3.5 tessar "T" for $10, a coated Karat-Xenar 5cm F2.8 for $30, and a Black Argus/Cosina STL1000 for $20. Not as many dealers as in the past, but well worth it.

Man, I miss getting to the Photorama. If it wasn't such a long haul for one day. Always found something good there, whether it was something needed, or something I didn't know existed. Good shopping there, Brian. Wasn't much at the PPA show, as it was mostly geared to the portrait studio types, but I did manage to pick up a nice medium ballhead, and a small soft-box for a flash.
