Also keep an eye out for the SebringFans.com banners.

I will definitely be in your area. Are you there all 4 days? I think I'm going for 3 of 4. I drive back and forth from Pinellas. Though I do stay over Friday night into Saturday.
I'll be renting a super zoom lens to get some great up close shots. I'd be happy to give you any copies of what I take.

I have a Nikon 70-300 VR lens, but if I were to want even greater zoom where would someone go to rent a lens? And how much does it cost? I think that I can get close enough and using the 300 lens I should be more than ok, but for future shuttle launches and all.....

Man, that's a deal right there. I might even do that. Would make the sebring experience a whole new adventure. Going to wait to see if I get photo creds again this year.

Can you effectively use something more than a 300 zoom? We can get right up to the wall so the zoom much beyond that seems excessive. Is there a benefit to having the 400 or 500 zoom?
