Is anyone going to get their shorts in a knot if I hang on to 8.2 for another weekend? I've had no free time to do anything with it. I have a free weekend here in a few days. I'm not sure where it will take me, but everyone else will be gone and I have no commitments (other than this one!). If I go camping, I'll get photos. If I stay close to home, I'll still get photos. I love it when all my options bring a smile.

Of course, not. We will hunt you down like a rabid dog....

No, the issue is sharing quality of work, not rushing to get a camera around the world.

Have a great weekend.

Of course we don't Chris... enjoy your time with the camera whatever you do this weekend. I foresee only one little problem.. I don't wear any shorts....:w00t:
 
The Brandon crew has given 8.1 a test of how well it handles low light situations, and it is now ready to move on. I'm waiting to for confirmation of mailing address from Segedi in Calgary.

Banana, (I think that is the 1st time I have started a salutation that way!)

I am next after Segedi (and in Calgary) so if you have trouble getting hold of him, send it to me and we can reverse the order. I was planning on meeting him for the camera handover (think Michael Caine, Ipcress File...)

It may get here before the snow flies. Although I am planning on x-c skiing on Saturday - the Canmore Nordic Centre will open with a short 1 km track!)

And what exactly is a LONG 1 km track?

I've sent thebanana my address, hands wring with anticipation.

Very cool! We are moving along nicely...but did we skip someone? Isn't Wallbergb in Manitoba the next on the list? Of course we can amend the remaining order - just want to make sure we don't miss anyone.

Speaking on behalf of all those in the Camera 8.1 group who want to see their camera cross the finish line first, you can hold on to Camera 8.2 for as long as you like: longer if you really want to. We will even let you know when you can forward it:tongue:

Just remember... 8.2 has been round the world before. It knows how to get it's ass home. Let's just see how the quality of photography compares when 8.1 drags its sorry little Nikon butt across the finish line.

Speaking as one who hasn't a clue to which group he belongs, I don't give a rat's tuchas which camera makes it home first. Take your time, get a good shot. Results, not speed.

Speaking as one who hasn't a clue what a rat's tuchas is... I'm fascinated?

Oh and in no hurry for the camera either :wink:

Dems fightin' words, Tim.

I thought it was already settled that we have better photographers on the 8.1 list.

You gonna throw down a challenge at this late stage? I certainly would've taken more care in my two shots if I knew you were aimin' for a fight! To all those on still left on the 8.1 list: let's show 'em!

And let the trash-talking begin...
