Yeah that all sounds good Don. Too bad we couldn't convince them otherwise. I just hope the sun isnt' too overpowering. I guess we'll find out. THANKS FOR SETTING UP! And didn't you do lunch last time?

Have you got that CP you were looking for?

Sounds good to me! I might still leave early and see what I can see on the way up. I should be going through Franconia just as the sun is coming up so it might make for some interesting shots.

I'll be there at 8:45 ready to roll!

Through Franconia to get to Bartlett? Does that mean you are coming from Canada? Or am i confused? hehe

No Vin had one but it was some cheapo china version.

The most direct way for me is to go up 93, through Franconia, and hit 302 down to Bartlett. I'm in Derry, NH so it would be out of my way to go across and hit 95.

Becca...is the Kankamangus easier..I think it is 112 or 113...not sure, brings you just below conway.

Is that open in the winter? For some reason I thought they closed it at the top during the winter...

sounds good Don and thanks for taking care of that for us!!!

From what I read, the only CP that will not vignette at 16 on the 16-35 has to be custom made. Even the Lee does. Anyone know this for sure? Or able to suggest something on this subject.

Mine was just delivered and I have no CP for it either.

Kickass. Should be a good time.

Becca, yeah i didn't realize there was no lateral way around. I knew you lived up there but wasn't sure where.

Well i was using this one;

It had slight discoloration on the edges, but nothing i couldn't fix in 2 seconds with photoshop. So the benefit outweighed the detraction. In this case.

They have a 82mm version, but it's not the 'Thin' model;

I found this pretty cheap one, specifically for wide glass;

There are some slim ones for around $200. i just don't want to be the first to try them out and return them. I'll wait until someone has proven one to work and buy that.

Thread posted here, with no conclusive results;

And by conclusive, i mean, shots with Full Frame @ 16mm, posting an image. I have concerns that are a little more than, "Yeah go for it" .

Btw, Don, i did get the 82mm Lee step up ring. You may want to order today if you need it for sunday.

AHHH! Too bad! I was going to order a couple but they don't have them in stock. 2 week delivery. Sorry. . . . . and I know that you always want the most economical.

Haha, i don't want most ecinomical if it sacrifices quality. But $400. for a filter... i just can't justify that at this point in my life.

thank god i am still on 77mm lenses i ahve my CPL, ND and UV all ready to go on my trusty 24-70 (i guess it helps that i also don't like to shoot wide )
