I don't think so.
I'm not sure what exactly that is, but I'm looking at it now and don't see anything that seems to fit that description.

Do you think I might want to use my 50mm f/1.8 with filters? If yes do you have a spare 52-58mm step up ring? I keep forgetting to get one...

It should be a loop similar to the one opposite the knob on the bottom of the picture.



I'll check if I have the SUR, but I don't think I do.

Pretty much all I have is my cameras... is anything else required?

Bring your camera and lens (or lenses) and a tripod. If you have it, bring a remote and filters (circular polarizer and ND).

I haven't seen my tripod in 8 years. :(

Though I do have one of these... :P

Should I rush out and buy one?

LOL that's not gonna do much.

It's not completely necessary, but you'll lose out a lot if you don't have one, especially by the falls.

I'll only have my camera and a lens.

I'm an ameteur sh'ba'amateur.

Oh, and I'll have clothes, never fear.

By the way, this will be a DO for beginners, yes?  ;D

Because all this talk about f-stopping is making me think about what I do after I get cutoff on the highway.

Okay, I'll try to buy one tomorrow morning. I can always return it to Amex. ;)

Which one should I get? Where's the best place in/around Flatbush to get it?

And where is my ride from - Flatbush or BP?

If it's going back you may as well go all out. Get a nice carbon fiber one and a solid ballhead. If it's above $300 it should be good enough ;)

We'll finalize the rides tomorrow I think.
