Description Can't wait for some trackside action of the proper racing variety, but for the time being last week's test session has me 'Beaming'.

Testing at Queensland Raceway on Tuesday 10 April 2007 were Dick Johnson (Jim Beam) Racing, Triple Eight Race Engineering (Team Vodafone) and Paul Cruickshank (Glenfords) Racing.

Kick ass as always. Keep up the good work.

Colours are so vibrant, and the panning just perfect.

Well you've now done the deed so I need not wonder. Racing cars sending subliminal messages. What ever next...?

Well, drivers have home delivered before; when Domino's pizza sponsored 888 last year the drivers delivered pizzas as a publicity stunt one night before the first round in Adelaide...

Awesome shot mate! I'm itching to get trackside this year and give the 70-200 a real workout.

What lens are you shooting these with?

Cheers.

bigshotdan In reply to J-E-K-Y-L-L [2007-04-18 01:38:40 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Craig. And what lens? Apparently very similar, if not the same: f/2.8 non-IS.

J-E-K-Y-L-L In reply to bigshotdan [2007-04-18 02:44:16 +0000 UTC]

Same one mate.. I also have the 1.4x TC for mine. Good to know it'll do the job when I get my arse track side.

bigshotdan In reply to J-E-K-Y-L-L [2007-04-18 04:41:44 +0000 UTC]

Oh abso-bloody-lutely it will! I'm keen on purchasing the 1.4x teleconverter too; I've read it maintains a better image quality than the 2x version.

J-E-K-Y-L-L In reply to bigshotdan [2007-04-18 06:56:56 +0000 UTC]

If you msg me your email address I'll send some comparison shots from this lens with and without the 1.4x TC. You can hardly tell the difference.
