These are a few from Eastern Creek yesterday.
First real chance to try out new D200. It is certainly faster than the D70,but a steep learning curve with the new settings. Can any of you more experienced D200 users suggest what focus settings are best for motor sport ieGroup Dynamic or Dynamic Area , 11 af areas or 7af wide areas. What also showed up was any flaw in technique whereas it was not so obivious with the D70.
Thanks
Jeff

Thanks Kyle, its the Nikon 300 f4 it seems to be a very sharp lens.These ride days are on often and are advertised on the Eastern Creek web site.
I find them good to practise ones technique( I need to practise often).

Thanks guys.
Pa No1 is heavily cropped but the other 2 are just lightly cropped. At Eastern Creek you can get fairly close to the track especially at turn 2.
Thanks
Jeff

Thanks guys
Alan the D 70 has been borrowed by my daughter to try,to see if she likes it. In practical terms if I want to use it as a backup I will have to borrow it back,daughters have a way that you just can't resist them. When are we going to see some shots from your new body.

Mate, I haven't touched my gear for about a month. I should be able to make it to the A1GP, so hopefully I'll get something worthwhile there. Short of that, I have the Fiat Hill Climb this weekend at Mount Panorama, so hopefully I'll get something there worth posting.
