kster Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I was at Sears Point today for the first day of IRL & Grand-Am action. Friday was mostly practice sessions; the big races will be on the weekend. After watching these cars for half a day, I really felt an urge to sign-up for a track day at Sears Point. http://photos.imageevent.com/kster/indyracing/img_1577.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/kster/indyracing/img_1172.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/kster/indyracing/img_1238.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/kster/indyracing/img_1561.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/kster/indyracing/img_1277.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTCanada Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Very nice shots. What is your camera set up? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kster Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 Thanks GTCanada. I'm using a digital SLR (Canon 5D with a 70-200mm lens) and this was my first attempt at motorports & panning. I was out there for about four hours and realized that getting the car to fill-up the entire frame and still show motion isn't easy. But Sears provides really good locations for fans to shoot from.

Nice. I'm looking for a DSLR and the Canon 20D was recently recommended to me. Can't swing the $$ for the 5D unfortunately. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 20D is a great camera and so it the newer 30D. And I've seen prices start to fall a bit on the 30D. You can't go wrong with either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
