Friday deffo a lot quieter :thumbs:, and if you're shooting from the wrong side of the fence your best bet as you can get right up to the lovely wire fences that they have all the way round the track. Last year on the Saturday they had marshals shooing people away from the fences. :cuckoo:

OK i get it, IS is not that important. Still a nice feature to have though. It can be switched of right? Noticed the 150-500, still a little above my budget and probably experience at the moment. Think I'm gonna hunt for a 70-300 USM IS, seems to get a few good recommendations from those that...

I'm confused about the IS being of no use, i thought that mode 2 was for panning?

Thanks for the reply, still out of my price range unfortunately :(

Forgot to mention this be for shooting bikes at various UK tracks so not as close to the action as I'd like. hence the range query

Got hold of a 40D, now need a decent motorsport lens I notice a Canon 70-200 F4L for sale, any good or would the lack of range and IS hinder my results Other option would be a 70-300 USM IS :help:

As already said, not really an upgrade as i can see, unless he wanted the video facility.

It's a fair cop Bloody teachers. :p

Does it come with batter on and chips?

Your sense of smell goes when you get older as well. :D

Following on from the you do what for a living thread (those in the know call it grooming). this time I'm asking how old you all are. It seems that this particular hobbie might be more inclined to attract the old fart than the younger folk. So how old are you?...

Thanks for the heads up but like i said it will be a crimbo present from the wife, i'll just be steering her in the right direction. :naughty:

Whatever that link is i dont have access to it. i take it it's in classifieds?

Have you got a link for the camera centre, Google throws up a few.

Took a picture of a full moon the other night... The Mrs gave me a right thick ear and made me delete it straight away. :naughty:
