Gray Cards in Connecticut

Somebody here living in Connecticut? My sister moved recently from Astoria near Manhattan to Connecticut and she said something about only 45 kilometers (or more probably miles).

She will be in South Africa in November and I want her to bring a ‘gray card’ (the combo pack) in this URL with:

Gray (or grey:-) cards are not available in South Africa and it is not really practical to buy paint in a paint shop and paint a piece of cardboard 127 127 127 0r 7f7f7f.

I can not pick up an address there without contacting them and open myself for spam and seeing that the prices here (said URL) is really reasonable, I would like to get hold of an address where I (or she) can get hold of it.

Asking this after a whole afternoon searching for
residential addresses and prices.

I’m sure that your sister could find what she needs at the Camera Bar in Hartford. There are other shops, though, that might be closer to where she lives!

Just a word of warning: the Camera Bar, and virtually every other "pro" camera shop is going to be pretty expensive (compared to the Internet).

Thanx for your reply Aaron. She asked me this afternoon
(still morning there of course) for a name or address or something. She is now in Danburry, small town I asume, and has been to NYC today where she hopefully found it.

I’ll tell her ’bout the Camera Bar later in the evening. What I said was that any (big) photographic Shop should be able to supply info.

Well heck, if she wanted to go down into NYC, she could go to B&H Photo Video, arguably one of the largest and most highly-respected photo stores in the east. I buy ALL of my supplies from them.
