Teryl is going to be at the NY Con?!?

[hsapiens]

Just checked the con schedule, in hopes of figuring out how to squeeze in my non-fandom friends and noticed that:

- Michael Shanks has been removed from the guest list. Bummer. I do like to take pictures of the man. He's very pretty.

- TERYL ROTHERY HAS BEEN ADDED! I know, I know. It's impolite to shout but oh my god, I was just whining about how it seemed wrong to have a con without her and there she is!!! Oh joy! katiedammit, is there anything now you want me to get signed?

I think you'd find the stabilization factor pretty impressive... I've only used it at a couple conventions, but I got good shots from far away in crappy light, so it must have been effective. :)

I don't recall the brand off hand (it's at home and I'm at work, and my searches through online vendors are not being terribly helpful), but most such products are pretty inexpensive.

In any case, since I'm driving in, I don't mind tossing it in the backseat at all. Consider it yours to experiment with for the Saturday events if you'd like. :)

Thank you! You won't need it on Saturday? I assume you'll be taking photos?

I wish they'd make a monopod a little like a mic stand -- with a round, weighted base. That would probably do me wonders. Not really portable, which I think it the point of the monopod. :)

I rather suspect my seat will be bad enough that it won't matter if I have the monopod or not. I just wanna see Ms. Thang, anyway.

That design would be cool, but... impractical, I think. Especially for moving targets like hyper actresses who like to bounce around on stage or run around through an audience. :)
