5erfest Autocross pics, turn 1 and 2

I resized and adjusted the saved quality of these pics since I first posted the link in the General section Sunday. I only have about 15 or so cars uploaded. Click the thumbnail to get a 1280x850 pic with reasonable quality (~180k). If anyone wants a full size pic, let me know.

Tim,

Here are the links to full size pics of your car. These were shot with a Canon Digital Rebel SLR on the medium setting. I'll leave them up for a few days for you to save a copy.

Cheers,
Chuck

Are you going to be posting more pics? I'd like 3122 and 3123, please. If you're going to be posting more, I'll just wait to see if you got any more of me.

Thanks.

Did you get any of #16 (nasty looking e12)?
Did I leave any parts on the track? :~

CSBM5 · Post by **CSBM5** » Jun 01, 2005 11:22 PM

Sorry, I don't seem to have any. I had to leave the autocross early, so I only have pics of some of the cars.

Are those all the autox pictures you took? Do you have any of #6 (delphin grey with Fikse wheels, shoe polish number)? I ran in the first group.

I do have some of your car since I was there for all of the first run group. The link up above is updated with your car, and here is a direct link to full size images I uploaded for you:

[QUOTE="Leonard Love"]And larges for 3152 and 3153 please.[/QUOTE]

Jeez, I guess you guys like my pics or something.

Beautiful car btw.

Image 53 is a bit blurry unfortunately. I was using the sport mode, and it autofocused toward the rear of the car. I should have been using the aperture priority mode to ensure adequate depth of field. Image 52 is blurry in full size too since it appears the camera focused on the cones in front of the car. Sorry. I'm a long time film SLR user (35+ years), manual focus only, and this was my first attempt using this new Digital Rebel SLR and also using autofocus. Clearly I should have set the autofocus to just use the center dot to focus...live and learn.

Hey, I did center focus with my EOS 20D and well, the autofocus just couldn't keep up with the cars! Many of my shots are out of focus with a narrow depth of field too. First time out with my 20D so it was a learning experience as well,

!

Some of my later shots are better as I used the Sports mode for the higher shutter speed to stop motion.

If you have any more of the #2 M5 that ran in group #1 I'd love whatever you have...TIA!

Jim,

Here are the big pic links below. Copy them to your PC, and then I will delete them from my site.

Enjoy!
