RF.SG March Outing - Malacca Encore


Hi Gary

Do you want to come up with a back up plan? If really only 1 driver, so the top 4 who registered early will get to go?
Or another place to gather?

By e way, if we really meet up...can i have the honour to take a look at ur M2? Never had a chance to look thru the view finder and feel a Leica rangefinder :)
Want to really see how different it is from my bessa.

cheers

Er... Currently no back up plan.

If there is not enough drivers, I'm afraid only the priority first 3 can go. I can remove my name if that is the case to allow members to go ahead.

ZoomP is pretty experienced with Melaka.

Yep sure, no problem. If my new M comes on time, you can take a look at it as well. Leica VF nothing special la, generally sama sama.
Mordern Japanese RF like the Hexar/Voigtlander/Zeiss all have equally bright VFs generally.

I'll have to put a pause on the attendence list for now till we have more volunteers to take us there.
We would need another 2 more cars before we can proceed any further.

Yep, its seriously got a big VF for the Zeiss. I would say even better then Leica....

But...... The LED shutter light up imho is kinda faint. My Hexar is a lot much brighter.

lol! Erm, when it arrives, I'll post in forum! haha

OK.. I'll close shop on 19 Mar.

I might be driving my small little 660cc car, which can cramp 3 passengers, but might take 8 hours to drive to Malacca. :)

No need see pictures. You should be able to see the camera itself at the Malacca trip.

woah! Chiif close shop for us!!!!!!!

Btw boss, I can meet you in the morning at Tampines near your place or Tampines central. Load the car with some Guinness draft!


Update on the list:
Each car would be limited to 3 passengers + 1 driver of course.

Fuel/toll/touch & go etc. cost will be shared by passengers which shouldn't cost you more $20 to get there & back if I remember correctly the last time!

I think we can do the same excellent route we did the last time.

Venue: Malacca
Meeting Point: Jurong East National Library Roundabout.
Time: 7am
Date: 19th March 2011

Dave, if we both sit in front, your car will become wedge shape and thus become more stable and can travel faster, right? ;)

I agree, the RF folks here are friendly and a league of its own. Am glad that such community exists in CS.
