Great shot - I can see why you like it! Apart from the equipment mentioned above, were you using anything else? Basically I'm trolling for tips on how to best show off a car; I ran into my car-owning accquaintance the other day and mentioned I was interested in coming out to shoot his stable. Apparently he'd been thinking along those lines, too, so it will almost certainly happen. He's got an impressive lineup; apart from the Ferrari F360 and the Lamborgini he recently picked up a new toy - a Bugatti Veyron! There's also a Viper roadster, and I'm sure one or two others. I don't know whether he's got a Tesla. I don't have either the K-7 or 60-250 yet, but I'm sure the K10D and the trusty FA* 80-200 will suffice. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
