Jodad Posted September 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 12, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi all, I'm new to the forum and screw mounts in general. Some members suggested I set up a London event as there are apparently a lot of us here! How about it? Weekend i am guessing is probably best. Fine by me! What weekends are best for everyone? I'm thinking some street shooting perhaps by the water or around Trafalgar Square (but i don't mind location if you guys want to chime in with ideas) and probably dinner and maybe drinks after ;D 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Bachmann Posted September 12, 2016 Share #2 Posted September 12, 2016 I'd be up for something on a weekend morning/afternoon. At this point, possible dates for me are: 24 or 25 September or in October 2, 22, 23, 29 or 30. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

convexferret Posted September 13, 2016 Share #4 Posted September 13, 2016 I'm not anywhere near London but it might be a good excuse to fly in for a weekend. It would very much depend on the date though and I'd have to decide nearer the time as I'm likely to have a lot of last-minute stuff happen in October. I'll keep a close eye on this thread. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convex, I'm sure if we could, many members would love to have the meet in southern Spain! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roydonian Posted September 16, 2016 Share #6 Posted September 16, 2016 To you mean that we must use screw-mount cameras and lenses, or would screw-mount lenses on an M9 be OK? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodad Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share #7 Posted September 16, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Roy, unless the screw mount body users object, everyone is welcome really! If nothing else it would be nice to meet other members in person. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earleygallery Posted September 16, 2016 Share #8 Posted September 16, 2016 Roy, unless the screw mount body users object, everyone is welcome really! If nothing else it would be nice to meet other members in person. Hi Jodad, I was going to suggest that you open this up to being a London meet rather than thread camera users - you'll get a better turnout that way! Maybe ask one of the moderators to change the thread title once you've picked a date and put that in the title as well. I'll attend if I can make it! The informal meet ups are always enjoyable.

roydonian Posted September 16, 2016 Share #9 Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) But it would be fun to give old lenses an outing. My 5cm Elmar was made in 1938, five years before I was born, and my 7.3cm Hektor was made in 1932.

farnz Posted September 16, 2016 Share #10 Posted September 16, 2016 I'm in, Jodad. I can mke pretty much any of the dates that Dan's put down at the moment. James, It sounds like Jodad would like to have a chat with screwmount users particularly since he's new to the genre so perhaps a screwmount meeting is the right approach for this time round? Pete.

mikemgb Posted September 16, 2016 Share #11 Posted September 16, 2016 I'll be in London with my IIIa and Elmar November 11-13 doing the tourist thing with my wife should there be another meet later. We'll spend one day in Greenwich and Docklands but haven't got any real plans other than that. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodad Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share #14 Posted September 17, 2016 I'm up for a meet on the 22nd AND a meet on either the 12th or 13th, whichever people prefer. Two meets works fine for me 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted September 17, 2016 Share #15 Posted September 17, 2016 Fine by me. Pete. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravastar Posted September 17, 2016 Share #16 Posted September 17, 2016 It would be nice to meet up with everyone again. At the moment all three dates would be OK for me, meaning I could make two meets as well. (Now where did I put that M2Screw adapter? ) Kind regards, Bob.

Dan Bachmann Posted September 18, 2016 Share #17 Posted September 18, 2016 I'm up for a meet on the 22nd AND a meet on either the 12th or 13th, whichever people prefer. Two meets works fine for me I'm up for the 22nd of October. At the moment, I still have that day free during the morning & afternoon. (I'm no longer availabe 12-13 November or 23 October) So that makes at least 5 of us already for 22nd October 2016. Let's go for it. (perhaps a mod can change the title of this post to reflect the date) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted September 18, 2016 Share #18 Posted September 18, 2016 I've just checked and I can't be certain that I'll be back from Lisbon by 22nd October but 2nd is fine as is 12th or 13th November. Pete. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodad Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share #19 Posted September 18, 2016 22nd October for meet 1 it is then! Meet 2 tbd 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrycym Posted September 18, 2016 Share #20 Posted September 18, 2016 Next question is where? Not too far from a tube station would be best about 11am? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
