    Iunno I used to get them for 70% off for like 5 bucks
    so $25-30 all high quality photo paper, anyway to take up a group collection?
    I'll pay for the initial developement and get one 11x14 made in glossy to test out the picture.

    I'm in too, since it's only 10 min from one of my houses, and I can finally get the chance to meet the gang.

    I'm trying to track down a nikon or sigma (with nikon mount) that's wide angle to borrow.
    I've gotta run down to the ATL wolf store to get prices. Not having my car up and running right now is a bia for getting around.

    This is really coming together well. I like the idea of a really professional looking printout to hang on the wall.

    ^^^ I agree. This sounds like it's going to be a great picture.
    It'll be nice to have a group pic to hang on the wall.
    Thanks to Shane for providing a great opportunity.

    i do have a 24mm fixed Nikkor and a 24-120 Nikkor. I usually shoot my N90. Also, i have a 645 Mamiya with a fixed 80mm (i think, might be a 50mm) No show on the freebie Canon digi, yet. Slackers!
    I'll shoot slides, and scan them here at work. I can get about a 500MB scan. That'll good enough to blow-up to over 50 inch. I have a few friends at Color Genesis, i might be able to get a good quantity discount. I'll let everybody know about prices for prints. What sizes do you think we all want? smaller or bigger?

    Yes, I would be interested, and have pretty good SLR equpment/lens range that can produce some really good digital media as well-considerably better than my 3.3 mpix Nikon anyway

    Dec 10 is a no go, HOWEVER

    My Father is coordinating this w/ the VP of Operations at Road ATL. Unfortunately the 10th of Dec is a Panoz Track Day. Therefore, he did confirm that the 16th Friday would work. I do know a few of ya'll can't make it that day...SOOO i'm standing by to see if the 12th of December (Monday) would work. Can't do it on a weekend cause those are track days. Once I find out that we can do it between Mon-Fri 12th-16th...I'm going start a poll and see what works for the majority.PLEASE all try and make it.;) I'll keep ya posted! Thanks again.

    Shane
