Bob, I had a Fiat. just a few years ago...the first smart car (Fiat 650.) It couldn't hurt a bug, or anything other car for that matter. My suspension folded in a tight turn (just messing around) and the Fiat fell over. No scrapes...just indentations from the gravel.

The car being up on it's passenger side left Bob's brother hanging by his belts, and perhaps not able to undo them as his weight was against their locking pawls and cams, or he might has covered the release with his body whilst hanging like that. Exactly right! Nasty business, and I'm glad he is OK. He'll be sore. Bummer about the car. Looks like a nice ride, one of the beefier Audis.

old topic - 200mm pentax -m for sale... are they still around?
A friend of mine is buying a *ist DL locally, and would like to add some tele lens - our idea is using a small manual focus (200mm M) to try some trap-focus pics. I remember a thread where someone of the list would be selling one or two of those lenses, but can't locate in my notebook nor in the archives - I don't remember the name of the thread. So, if the seller still have that lens, kindly drop me a line. My friend is supposed to be in the US next week, and would settle that purchase in person.

Re: point and shoot
Actually there is an opensource camera firmware.

I keep the same lens on one of my K20s. But I find that for action shots of dogs in the park, it has a big problem focusing UNLESS it's a sunny 16 day, when it can perform beautifully. It's that ƒ6.7 aperture when it's extended to 250mm. I usually keep the aperture prioritized to ƒ6.7 so the camera will operate more quickly with less to do. ƒ8.0 in bright sun gives me 1000 of a sec at ISO 400.

Re: PESO - The Bond
I liked very much of the two photos, but I'd like to ask something. These kind of photography attracts me a lot, but I usually tend to be a bit embarrassed to point the camera at someone in order to catch the moment, as you did, sometimes because If I am going to be quick enough it seems I am steeling that picture, other times if I wait a bit to much they look at me and a lot of things can happen. How do you manage to do these beautiful and touching photos. And this question it's not just for you because some of the guys here in the list have lovely photos of moments like those.
