I'm a little disappointed with some of my shots to be honest. The ones of the tandem will be a little rough...D40s don't have great low-light performance...

I think I wanna look into moving to a Canon...

I'm working on processing right now.
Lulz, I was just wondering if I should pony up big bucks for the camera I want or just start out with a D40 like everyone else.
Save your pennies and get something better than a D40 or 400/450D.

At the very least you should be looking at a D90, D200/300, or a 5/40D.
Really? Is a 450D not that much better than a D40? This would be a starter cam so I wouldn't need full-frame or 1080p video or other shit like that, just something with good enough low-light performance to take decent pics at Turner/Gresham at night.

I do not agree.
I'm gonna agree with the Dr. here.. Dennis' car was outmatched on this course. Forrest had more angle, higher on the bank, and speed.

Thanks for the pics though :mrgreen:

...from what I remember, Forrest had a slight advantage after his lead run.
No problem on the pictorz.

Well really, I need faster glass. I was shooting my Nikor 55-200 f4-5.6. Most of those shots were at or close to full zoom, so around f4.7-5.6 I think.

One of my main motivations for wanting to go Canon, is that a LOT more of the people at events shooting shoot Canon than Nikon, so I have a lot more people I can bug to borrow glass and strobes and whatnot.

Sorry, by people I meant like Panda, Coders, and Alex. Not that I'm assuming they'd let me borrow gear.
