I'm not sure if I'll have time for this but you never know. I mean someone's got to bring their GH1 to even things up a bit.

That's a joke by the way although I may still bring it just for the heck of it.

[Michael Horton]

We highly encourage anyone and everyone to bring their camcorders, even GH1s. :-)

Seriously though, we do love folks to bring their cameras and shoot the supermeet.
