Pete - sorry to hear you won't be able to make it. The camp will be a "little" quieter without you

Roobi - trust me. Newbies are more than welcome and all the "experts" are more than willing to offer assistance .... be it imagers or visual. One of the best things about the camp is the ability to see what others are doing, look through their equipment, and then go back and try it on your own.
Only thing that gets peoples back up is white light at night, so all newbies should come armed with red torches
