Meaning it goes straight very well. Or as Hotblack Desiato might say 
"Looks like a fish, moves like a fish, steers like a cow."?




In other words the suspension is very stiff and  weight transfer and suspension 
travel are well controlled. It’s a far cry from the original 1969 car. The rear 
differential is electronically locking, like that of the GT S Mercedes, and the 
rear tires are very wide and sticky. It’s quite manageable in a straight line. 
Of course if you get one tire in some wet stuff and hammer the throttle or try 
to accelerate hard on an uneven road, you’re going to get in trouble rapidly. 
The guy drives an 18-wheeler cross country, so fast cars don’t scare him.

Interchangeable lenses
Manual Exposure&  focus capable
Raw format

Anything else?


I've been thinking about this, and would be inclined to go at it from a 
slightly different angle. I'd break the course up into units, and would 
list the equipment needed for each unit.


Composition: A camera.

Digital exposure: A camera that can create histograms, with full manual 
control over exposure


Selecting focal length: lenses, or cameras capable of a specific range 
of Angle of views. (35mm equiv  28 or wider 40-60, 85 or longer)


Digital processing:  A camera capable of shooting raw, or a film camera 
and a scanner.


Studio: Manual exposure, histogram or strobe meter(with film), ability 
to trigger strobes (pc jack, hot shoe/wireless trigger, manual strobe 
with IR filter ...)


macro photography: camera+lens(+diopter?) capable of at least 1:2 
magnification.


I would also *strongly* suggest that their life would be a lot easier 
with an interchangeable lens camera, capable of shooting raw, with the 
following lenses, and list approximate prices that they might be able to 
find for the equipment on craigslist.


I might also suggest which assignments that they might be able to share 
specialty gear on.

Lisa and I traveled to London in January and had a meet-up with Bob W.
and Chris Mitchell at a pub called the Dovetail recommended by Bob.
Unfortunately it turned out to be jam packed on a Friday night so we
had to go elsewhere for a meal. But Lisa and I returned the following
Monday and found it much quieter, so we were able to enjoy a meal and
some great Belgian ale. Also, I was able to shoot photos of the alley
way where their entrance is.

Re: PESO: Black Widow

[Paul Stenquist]

He detunes it to about 1000 horsepower for normal driving, about the same as a 
Bugatti Veyron. That’s accomplished mainly by reducing the amount of 
supercharger boost. All of the suspension and steering gear is engineered for 
stability. In other words the suspension is very stiff and  weight transfer and 
suspension travel are well controlled. It’s a far cry from the original 1969 
car. The rear differential is electronically locking, like that of the GT S 
Mercedes, and the rear tires are very wide and sticky. It’s quite manageable in 
a straight line. Of course if you get one tire in some wet stuff and hammer the 
throttle or try to accelerate hard on an uneven road, you’re going to get in 
trouble rapidly. The guy drives an 18-wheeler cross country, so fast cars don’t 
scare him. 

Here’s the rear view.

Lisa and I traveled to London in January and had a meet-up with Bob W.
and Chris Mitchell at a pub called the Dovetail recommended by Bob.
Unfortunately it turned out to be jam packed on a Friday night so we
had to go elsewhere for a meal. But Lisa and I returned the following
Monday and found it much quieter, so we were able to enjoy a meal and
some great Belgian ale. Also, I was able to shoot photos of the alley
way where their entrance is.

I saw someone do that in a Ferrari Testarossa once. They started too fast, 
spinning the wheels, lost the back end, spun in the road and crashed into 
several parked cars, causing considerable damage, and embarrassment to themself.

Yes, indeed. They arrive last at the traffic lights, cycle to the front of the 
queue, then move away at a stately pace, getting in the way of respectable, 
middle-aged men in lycra commuting to an honest job that's not in media. They 
all have fat arses bursting out of their turned-up little shorts, and wear 
colossally bushy beards.

The men are even worse.

PESO: Dovetail Bike

[Mark Roberts]

Lisa and I traveled to London in January and had a meet-up with Bob W.
and Chris Mitchell at a pub called the Dovetail recommended by Bob.
Unfortunately it turned out to be jam packed on a Friday night so we
had to go elsewhere for a meal. But Lisa and I returned the following
Monday and found it much quieter, so we were able to enjoy a meal and
some great Belgian ale. Also, I was able to shoot photos of the alley
way where their entrance is.

Re: Photographing on ice

[Rick Womer]

Igor, I've never shot in an ice rink, but I've done a fair amount with
really strange lighting (allegedly white, not colored lights shining
on bands), often from mixed sources.

I shoot RAW, and either before or after the shoot I pull out a plastic
grey card I carry in my bag, and wander about the venue shooting it.
Then I use the color temperature eyedropper in Lightroom to correct
the RAW image based on the appropriate grey card reading.

If you hunger for some tedium, you can use the Brush tool to correct
different areas of the photo differently.

Re: If you were teaching a photography class...

[Jostein]

I think my list would be restricted to manual exposure and raw format.
If you go for interchangeable lenses I'd add a large-aperture prime.

And since it's us you're asking, it should be a Pentax or Ricoh, of 
course. :-)

Re: K-1 vs K-3

[Gonz]

Its probably worth some experiments.  I find that AF on my K5 slows down
rapid fire shots.  If I turn it off, its way faster.  So it might not be
the buffer.  Try taking a bunch of shots without AF and any other
automation off, i.e. exposure, etc.

Re: August PUG is up

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Ken Waller's "Daybreak" is my favorite.  The rhythm of the repeating
patterns is the water is mesmerizing, and the diagonal compositions grabs
and hold the eye.  The sunrise colors are enhanced by the dark brooding
mountains beneath them, and the wake of the boar in the lower right gives
the sense of motion through the tranquility of the scene.

I was fascinated by Malcolm's "Long Shadow," since I have taken a number of
macroscian images.  This one works quite well, to my eye.

It's a pity there isn't something like the K1000 in digital. Nowadayd the cheap 
cameras are fully automatic. The non-P cameras start complicated and to get 
simplicity you have to pay increasingly large amounts of money. The world's
