The most important thing is composure. Exposure comes next, IMO.

An interesting question and interesting answers! For me, I don't get out nearly enough. If I arrange to meet someone to take photographs together or when I go on holiday are nearly the only opportunities I get. The best camera is the one you have with you though, as they say, so I'm finding I'm...

85mm for me; but you can rest assured you've got all the bases covered. Primes are preferable but as above, just wait and see when you get there what suits your style the most.

Talk about a no brainer ;)

This is the key. :thumbs:

Agreed. Ebay and the classified section on here will do you well.

How much is the lower bracket of money?

I find that as I develop as a photographer that I am no longer proud of the images that I took 3 or 4 years ago and don't want them associated with my account and so delete them from flickr.

That's fascinating and frightening in equal measure - thanks for posting! :)

Made one order with Panamoz Friday evening showed up the following Thursday - can't really argue with that.

Disagree. As a percentage of the total volume I find them to be very effective. For me it's a wonder anything posted in one end of the country can arrive at a private household only 12-18 hours later. Remarkable. There's always going to be some losses though unfortunately.

The problem, IMO, with running the first audio over the second clip is that the sound would be getting quieter despite the car accelerating towards. Also, the Doppler effect would be reversed and the pitch variation would be back to front.

It's a good idea but I agree with Bill above that it's a solution to a problem that doesn't really exist. If you are reasonably swift at changing your lenses and observe a few good practices (don't do it in the open during a sand storm), try and keep everything facing the floor then you'll be...

I'd heartily recommend the 50mm f/1.8 Mk II that's been suggested above. From the 18-55mm, it really lets you try things that you just can't with the kit lens. I'm in a similar boat regards the flash as well - the link above for a Canon 550 doesn't seem to link to any particular model...
