Today and tomorrow at the Javits Center in the Hell's Kitchen area of Manhattan is the B&H Photo BILD Show, a major expo for photographers to celebrate the 50th anniversary of B&H Photo. (Note that "for photographers." I.e., not for the industry. It's for you, their customers.) Here's how B&H describes it:
- Over 100 World-class speakers
- Portfolio reviews
- Photo walks
- Photo and video experiences
- Tri-State accessibility
- Audio experience
- Contest and prizes
- Learn new skills
- Show specials on gear
- Network with the premier photographers and videographers In New York
If you are in the Tri-State area, don't miss out! (The Tri-State area, for those of you not from here, is the metropolitan area of New York City, the largest metropolitan area in the US and the most populous area in the US, sprawled over big chunks of the States of New Jersey, downstate New York (including Long Island*), and Connecticut. A whopping six percent of the entire US population lives in the Tri-State Area—more than in the entire States of Arizona, Wisconsin, and Missouri combined.)
For more information, head over to the B&H Photo website. Or just head to the Javits Center!

Jeff: "I’m always hoping for some good BILDs. Pictures, that is (Yiddish)."
Hell's Kitchen area? Isn't that where Buz Murdock (George Maharis), of the TV series Route 66, was raised? (The Corvette they drove would probably be stolen in a minute down there!)
(Thom H. also had a blurb on his website.)

Mike, you ought to drive down tonight and attend the show tomorrow. I’m sure many folks would love to read your report (with a few photos). I was planning to drive down from the Cape and meet up with several of my GR friends, but alas, something came up so I can’t make it.

Mike, you should highlight that there are "Build Expo Deals" (Promo Code BILDBH50, but I believe the price breaks apply automatically when shopping online.) I'm looking at a Canon EOS R7 with $200 off the regular price of $1499. I just gotta think what else I may need before pressing "buy." It seems there are similar deals across all major camera brands and memory cards. Go B&H!

I really wanted to go and signed up. Work and wife’s Covid is keeping me away. I’m kinda bummed. I could name a dozen people now testing positive. Somehow I’m not.

Having grown up in Oyster Bay L.I. I would like to point out that most residents of said island do no pronounce the g at the end of long. More of a New Yawk thing
